Starring Tim Roth, Jack Lowden, and Japanese singer Kōki, Tornado is a historical samurai thriller which follows a young woman who faces off against a gang of ruthless criminals in 18th century Scotland.
We're especially thrilled to support Tornado not only as a fantastic Scottish film, but because its writer-director is local, coming from across the water in Tayport.
"I grew up spending a lot of time in Dundee," John Maclean told us when we spoke to him last week, "[DCA] showed my previous film, Slow West… so very happy to be back."
Tornado is showing at DCA until Thursday 18 June – book now and catch it on the big screen while you can!
