Boys Go to Jupiter: GFF Youth Takeover

Join us for FREE pizza, a Scottish premiere and... a gelatinous little dude from outer space? Kick off your GFF experience with this very special pop-up cinema event, curated by the Glasgow Film Festival Young Ambassadors, exclusively for 15-25 cardholders. Boys Go to Jupiter is a unique and surreal coming-of-age animation, featuring an all-star comedy cast and a gorgeous, dreamy soundtrack. Make sure to come to Adelaide Place in plenty of time to fully enjoy all the Youth Takeover has to offer. Get ready for surprise elements, prizes and epic free pizza slices from our wonderful friends at Civerinos – first come first served! This event is free but ticketed. It is exclusively for GFT 15-25 members, and young people referred by our partner charities and organisations. Please collect your ticket from the GFT Box Office before attending the event at Adelaide Place. DOORS OPEN: 18:00 DOORS CLOSE: 19:00 FILM STARTS: 19:15 POST-FILM ACTIVITIES: 20:45 FINISH: 22:00 Animation fans looking for distinctive voices won’t want to miss Julian Glander’s stylish feature debut, which brings the life of Billy 5000 (Jack Corbett) and his friends to colourful life. Teenager Billy may be a high school drop-out but he’s also a maths whizz - and he’s found a glitch in the payment app he uses in his food delivery job that could help him get rich quick. Glander follows his offbeat hero’s adventures after he encounters a curious - and seriously cute - space alien and locks horns with an orange juice firm’s megalomaniac owner (Janeane Garofalo). A wonderfully weird charmer. Thanks to Julian Glander and Peisin Yang Lazo GFF Youth Takeover is made possible with the help of the Glasgow 850 Festival Fund.United States, 2024PT1H30MN/C 15+2025-03-04
