The Glock pistol has been fetishised in films and the arts, and is a regular top seller in the international arms market. For the first time, the filmmaking duo Fritz Ofner and Eva Hausberger tell the story of the rise of the Glock: an Austrian design that became the most sought-after service and murder weapon worldwide. Tracing the web of power, money, violence and politics, the film portrays the dark sides of globalisation and not least an Austrian tale of wilful ignorance.
The UK premiere screening on Friday 14th Sept will be followed by a Q&A with director Fritz Ofner. Weapon of Choice then screens daily from Sat 15th - please check for further times and tickets.
