The Maritime Piracy Humanitarian Response Programme and the ITF Seafarers’ Trust is inviting journalists reporting on piracy to a preview screening of what the two organisations believe is a powerfully realistic portrayal of the reality of Somali piracy.
A Hijacking, a new film by Danish director Tobias Lindholm, is due for UK release on 10 May. It tells the story of what happens when a ship’s crew is held hostage by pirates. We would like to invite you to a special screening for maritime press and journalists with a known interest in piracy.
It will be held at the Soho Screening Rooms, 14 D'Arblay St London W1F 8DY (http://www.sohoscreeningrooms.co.uk) at 10:00 (refreshments served) for 10:30 (screening begins) on 26 March 2013. Please let dawson_sam@itf.org.uk know if you wish to attend.
A reminder, full press release and media pack for the film will be sent to you on 25 March.
