Also on the line up will be many of the just-announced Oscar nominees -- including AMERICAN HUSTLE, 12 YEARS A SLAVE, THE WOLF OF WALL STREET, DALLAS BUYERS CLUB and more -- as well as a plethora of blockbusters, independent and foreign films, and even some exclusive Canberra premieres that you won’t find on the big screen anywhere else!

WIN TICKETS TO DENDY’S GALA SCREENING OF ’12 YEARS A SLAVE’
................................................................
Just nominated for nine Academy Awards, including Best Picture, and having won Best Motion Picture (Drama) at the Golden Globes a few days ago, 12 YEARS A SLAVE seems to be the film to beat at this year’s Oscars!
Now thanks to our friends at Dendy Cinemas, we’ve got your chance to catch the film early at a special gala event on WEDNESDAY 29 JANUARY. The exclusive event will kick off with drinks and canapes at 6 PM, followed by the film at 6:30 PM.
12 YEARS A SLAVE is the incredible true story of Solomon Northup (Chiwetel Ejiofor), a born-free African-American man who was abducted and sold into slavery against his will in 1841. The film follows Northup’s unwavering quest to return home to his family, and his struggle to maintain his dignity in the face of both extreme cruelty and unexpected kindness.
For your chance to win one of five double passes to the event, simply reply to this message -- or email us at info@anufg.org.au -- with your name, contact number and the answer to the following question: ‘On what date is 12 YEARS A SLAVE screening as part of the ANU Film Group's Semester One 2014 programme?’
Want to know the answer? Here’s a hint: have a look on our Facebook (www.facebook.com/anufg) or Twitter page (www.twitter.com/anufg) right now for clues!
