Emilíana is accompanied on stage by her collaborator Simon Byrt for a special live performance from the film.

Then, Charlie Brooker takes to the stage to talk about the return of BLACK MIRROR for its much-anticipated seventh season — expect dark humour, razor-sharp commentary, and a few surprises.
