Strange things are afoot in Bad City. The Iranian ghost town, home to prostitutes, junkies, pimps and other sordid souls, is a place that reeks of death and hopelessness, where a lonely vampire is stalking the town’s most unsavoury inhabitants. But when boy meets girl, an unusual love story begins to blossom… blood red.

Billed as “the first Iranian vampire western,” Ana Lily Amirpour’s arresting debut masterfully reimagines the vampire myth with a bold feminist twist. This anniversary screening celebrates 10 years of a modern cult classic that blends genres and culture delivering a refreshingly beautifully original and cool film. 

Followed by panel discussion led by Dr. Mairéad Casey and GEN Council members Eabha Leech and Molly Qualter.
