The immersive movie company’s next screening will attempt to blend art with activism.
Secret Cinema’s enormous, immersive productions aren’t something you’d normally associate with activism. Usually the focus is on escapism through familiar Hollywood movies that lend themselves to flashy set designs (its most recent real-life events were recreations of ‘Romeo + Juliet’ and ‘Casino Royale’). But its new post-lockdown plan, LOST, is one the company is describing as ‘a socially-driven project exploring radical new ways to make and release art’ that will coincide with ‘specific social campaigns’ to tie in with the themes of the film.
