Wednesday 20th April from 18:00
To open our first Tattsflix night, we have selected the award-winning documentary, Icarus!
In this movie, filmmaker Bryan Fogel sets out to uncover the truth about doping in sports; a chance meeting with a Russian scientist transforms his story from a personal experiment into a geopolitical thriller. Dirty urine, unexplained death and Olympic gold are all part of the exposure of the biggest scandal in sports history.
Reviewers are unanimous and call it “a crackling documentary”.
“Fogel’s willingness to follow a yarn that starts in one location before veering into entirely different narrative territory yields fascinating and entertaining result.” – The Australian
“Icarus is eye-opening viewing for professional sports enthusiasts, yet it should also prove thoroughly gripping even for filmgoers who might not necessarily be drawn to the subject.” – Insider
The Documentary and Film club is scheduled to meet in the Club on Wednesday 30th March from 18:00. The night will start with a screening of the documentary, follow by a light supper.
$30 per person including supper
