I wonder if it's one of the Bafta screenings and for some reason they are giving a portion of tickets away through SFF?

Did they give a reason for the cancellation?

'circumstances beyond our control' from SeeFilmFirst. Although I also got an e-mail from ShowFilmFirst saying 'circumstances beyond out control'.

This documentary is really good. I was a bit suspicious at first about the white farmers' motives and their relationship with their black workers as I originally agreed with Mugabe's land redistribution policy to the poor when it started around 10 years ago. The film shows what a bogus and corrupt redistribution scheme it is and I ended up really liking the 2 main white characters and believing that their Christian approach to their workers and others was genuine (which I didn't expect). The ICA in London are apparently bringing it back into their programme due to popular demand.
