Event Summary:

The Q&Agency (FKA Picturehouse 441) and ACE are proud to be partnering on a series of live virtual Q&As as part of our mutual efforts to promote media literacy. Join us for a virtual screening and Q&A with writer/director Charlie Polinger & producer Lucy McKendrick, as they discuss their work on the 2025 psychological drama-thriller, The Plague. At an all-boys water polo camp, a socially anxious twelve-year-old is pulled into a cruel tradition targeting an outcast with an illness they call The Plague. But as the lines between game and reality blur, he fears the joke might be hiding something real. Edited by Simon Njoo and Henry Hayes.
