The Hackney Bicycle Film Society will show Bellville Rendezvous on a pedal powered screen at the Herne Hill Velodrome on Sunday (April 17).
The animated film will start at 7.00pm and, if you arrive early, there will be the chance for newcomers to try the track out.
“Its plot involves the diminutive, club-footed Madame Souza preparing her orphaned grandson, Champion, to be a world-beating cyclist by personally supervising his arduous training regime,” reads the BBC’s four-star review.
“This impressively inventive French animated feature from comic-book artist Sylvain Chomet is far too entertaining to be enjoyed only by children.
“It may clock in at a crisp 80 minutes, yet a single viewing can barely do justice to this richly detailed and often playfully macabre adventure.”
The event is likely to be full to capacity so you are advised to e-mail the Hackney Bicycle Film Society to confirm your attendance: hbfs2011@gmail.com
