It's possible that after directing the pastoral idyll that was the Olympic Opening Ceremony, Danny Boyle felt the need to dirty things up. That would explain Trance (view trailer), a gangster/heist movie that takes a turn into the unexplored psychosexual corridors of Inception.

James McAvoy stars as a young art auctioneer, Simon, who gets mixed up in some bad business. Charged with hiding the most valuable artwork on the auction block in the event of a heist, Simon cops a severe bump on the head after Franck (Vincent Cassel) and his men breach the building. He now has amnesia and doesn't know what's what. It's soon made clear to him, however, that this was an inside job of his orchestration, and that he's the only one who knows — knew? — where the painting is hidden. In an attempt to retrieve the buried information, Franck sends Simon to a hypnotherapist, Elizabeth (Rosario Dawson), who soon inserts herself into the gang. Things get crazy from here on in.

Concrete Playground has teamed up with 20th Century Fox to present a private screening of Trance at 7pm on Wednesday, April 10 at the newly renovated Dendy Newtown. To go in the running to win one of 100 double passes, you just need to complete the Concrete Playground reader survey below and register your email address at the end.
