To celebrate the release of Lapsis, which arrives in cinemas on June 3, we’re giving away 10 double passes so you and a friend can enjoy the latest sci-fi drama on the big screen.

In just 48 hours, 10 lucky movie fans (and 10 very lucky friends) will be the proud owners of tickets to this year’s latest mystery sci-fi film. For your chace to win, all you have to do is subscribe to the Film & TV Observer newsletter, it’s that easy.

Directed by Noah Hutton, the darkly comic film premiered in the narrative feature competition at SXSW 2020 and scored the young director a nomination for the 2021 Independent Spirit Award for Best First Screenplay, which he wrote, directed, scored, and edited.

Lapsis showcases “a timely perspective of the failed utopian promises of big tech“, as described in the official synopsis:

Set in an alternative New York, the quantum computing revolution has begun, and investors are lining their pockets. However, building the network requires miles of infrastructure to be laid between huge magnetic cubes by “cablers”, a group of unprotected gig workers who have to compete against robots to pull wires over rough terrain.

Delivery man Ray Tincelli is both sceptical and suspicious of this new technology. However, to support himself and his ailing younger brother, he scores a shady permit and starts cabling, hoping to finally change his fortunes. What he doesn’t expect is to be pulled into a conspiracy involving hostile fellow cablers, corporate greed and the mystery surrounding someone called Lapsis Beeftech, who may have previously owned his permit.

Want to be one of the first in the country to see the film when it comes out? All you have to do is fill out this form which will sign you up to our Film & TV Observer newsletter. That’s literally it!

But don’t muck around, this Lapsis movie ticket giveaway only runs until 4pm AEST on Wednesday June 2nd.
