Is it coming to Wellington?
Is it coming to Wellington?
the nzac wellington section was looking at bringing it here but the economics just didn't stack up - it's reasonably expensive to screen and we didn't have much confidence in being able to break even. i'll be interested to hear how auckland do because it looks like an awesome film.

Showing where?

If you haven't seen it "Progression" is a flat out fantastic film if you like watching the hard stuff get done.
