Wednesday 29 November 2017 | 7pm Migration Museum at The Workshop 26 Lambeth High Street, London, SE1 7AG Tickets: £8.00 (excl. Eventbrite booking fee)   The first screening by the Migration Museum Film Club, Dirty Pretty Things is a 2002 film by Stephen Frears that focuses on the lives of a group of ‘illegal immigrants’ in London, all of whom are caught in a spiral of degrading, underpaid work that moves them further and further from their dreams of a more settled existence. Chiwitel Ejiofor and Audrey Tautou star, but the whole cast is magnificent. David Denby, in the New Yorker, called it ‘a social thriller – a creepy, tightly knit suspense film that, on the fly, reveals more about the lives of immigrants in London than the most scrupulously earnest documentary’. Attendees will also have the opportunity to view our current exhibition No Turning Back: Seven Migration Moments that Changed Britain. Drinks and nibbles will be available in return for a small donation.   Click here to book tickets via Eventbrite. Dirty Pretty Things (2002), dir.
