The Childhood of a Leader will screen at the Dubai International Film Festival as part of Cinema of the World, at a date to be confirmed, but the festival runs from 9 to 16 December 2015.Will update once we know more.

“The chilling feature debut ‘The Childhood of a Leader’ from director Brady Corbet, starring Liam Cunningham and Robert Pattinson is an unsettling portrait of emerging evil. Set in France in 1918, the film tells the tale of the terrifying influence of fascism in an unsure world. After witnessing his father help shape the Treaty of Versailles, ‘The Childhood of a Leader’ follows a young boy’s chilling rise from impressionable child to the cruel and calculating leader he will become.”
