A very special screening of sci-fi comedy The Bystanders is coming to the Northampton Filmhouse.

The screening of the film at Northampton Filmhouse will take place on Sun 26th November @ 6:15pm and will be followed by a Q&A with the films director Gabriel Foster Prior who will be discussing creating his highly unique and inventive feature film debut, so don't miss your chance to get an insight into British independent filmmaking.

Critics have been loving The Bystanders, some select film reviews below:

• ⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Inventive Brit-com…has style, charm and wit on its side” Kevin Harley, Total Film
• ⭐⭐⭐⭐ “A dazzlingly original SF romcom” Steve O’Brien, SFX
• ⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Mind-bakingly odd. Has the potential to be a cult classic" Simon, Henderson, Blazing Minds
• "Scrappy energy adds charm to this quirky sci-fi tale" Catherine Bray, Guardian
• "A London comedy of meddling manners, boozy nights, poltergeist pranking, workspace satire, and personal development. It is sweet, funny and schlumpily humane." Sci Fi Now
• "British sci-fi comedy that channels the scrappy energy of a young, Spaced-era Edgar Wright with the ambition of Doctor Who" Bloody Disgusting
• ⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Absolutely nails its tone. Despite being a brand-new film from a debut director. If Spaced went head-first into a collision with The IT Crowd, by way of a Black Mirror plot that was rejected on the basis of being far too sweet and charming. In the best possible way." Filmhounds
• "Seann Walsh excels in moments of chaotic tampering as he meddles in mortal affairs...Gabriel Foster Prior’s first feature is inventive, interesting, and rather unique." Lauren Miles, Film Stories
