About the film

  • Director: Ben Wheatley
  • Cast: Sam Riley, Alexandra Maria Lara
  • Language: English

BULK is a genre-blurring journey through alternate realities, packed with car chases, gunfights, sci-fi spectacle, and surreal romance. Produced by Rook Films and Film4, this is Wheatley at his most inventive and unpredictable – a return to the daring spirit of his cult hits In the Earth and A Field in England. The film stars Sam Riley, Alexandra Maria Lara, Mark Monero and Noah Taylor.

With executive producers Ollie Madden and David Kimbangi for Film4, BULK is more than a film — it’s an experience. And this exclusive post-premiere screening gave you the chance to be one of the first to see it outside of Edinburgh.

The screening was followed by a Q&A with director Ben Wheatley, actors Sam Riley and Alexandra Maria Lara and producer Andy Starke.
