A major crime mob in 2074 has a clever way of getting rid of people — sending them to the past, where paid killers known as Loopers are waiting for their marks. When Looper Joe (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) discovers that the target in front of him is his future self (Bruce Willis), he accidentally lets him go, starting a chain reaction of pursuit and violence. Older Joe will stop at nothing to change his fate while younger Joe is chased by the mob, and a mother (Emily Blunt) and her young son get caught up in the danger.
With a special screening of the short film Steeplechase before the feature.
Followed by a presentation on the science of time travel.
