Blow Up (15) 111mins

Cinema |
17th February 2013

A successful mod photographer in London whose world is bounded by fashion, pop music, marijuana, and easy sex, feels his life is boring and despairing. Then he meets a mysterious beauty, and also notices something frightfully suspicious on one of his photographs of her taken in a park. The fact that he may have photographed a murder does not occur to him until he studies and then blows up his negatives, uncovering details, blowing up smaller and smaller elements, and finally putting the puzzle together.

To coincide with the Uwe Wittwer exhibition at the Abbott Hall Art Gallery in Kendal, we present this cult British film, which features in his work. An Introductory talk on the exhibition will be given  by Nick Rogers, curator of the Gallery, before the film.
Take your film ticket to Abbot Hall and get in to the exhibition for free.
