Film: Johnny's House of Horror: Salò: 120 Days of Sodom (1975)

Dir: Pier Paolo Pasolini Running time: 112 mins Cert: 18 Subtitled

Pasonlini’s last work before he was murdered in 1975, Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom was only given an uncut release in the UK in 2000. Even though Salò is a very explicit and uncomfortable film to watch, its controversy often gets in the way of extraordinary film making about how monstrous humans can be. Introduced by Johnny Mains.

Performance: FOMO, MOFOS! (Fear Of Missing Out, Motherf***ers!) - Mary Pearson

A kaleidoscopic meditation on the digital age state of being. Modern myth, cautionary tale, and cinematic visual feast.

FoMO, mofos! is a dreamlike reflection on the consequences of hyper-connectivity and continuous self-exposure. Passing through cult classic films Blow-up and Mullholland Drive and the songs of Robert Wyatt, Kraftwerk and John Lennon, it explores vigilance, rootlessness, and the human animal's desire to conquer time and space.

Running time: 60 mins £10/£7 Discounts available via the Artory App and free to Plymouth University students via SPiA....

Performance: We are Ian by In Bed with My Brother

1989. Manchester. A frenzy of drugs, beats and bucket hats. Illegal raves. Acid parties. Just jumping up and down in a field and throwing two fingers to Thatcher… Remember it? Because we don’t. We weren’t even born. But Ian was. And Ian does remember. We’ve got f*ck all now (Ian tells us). So, we’re going back to 1989. We’re gonna neck a brown biscuit. We’re gonna get off our peanuts. We’re gonna bounce around like idiots. And Ian’s going to show us how. We’re mad fer it. And you will be too. Let’s party.
