Xpat Community Event: Australian Film Club, 20 January
The next event features Predestination (2014), based on Robert A. Heinlein's short story "'—All You Zombies—'". The title refers to the so-called predestination paradox or causal loop. A time travel agent is sent back to 1970 on his last assignment to catch the Fizzle Bomber and prevent another detonation that would claim several victims. Working incognito as a barkeep, he encounters a young man writing confession stories under the pseudonym The Unmarried Mother.

The latter's intimate knowledge of the female experience prompts the agent to involve him in his mission with the prospect of handing the job over to him indefinitely. However, due to "fate" and an error in the agent's time travelling device events take an unexpected turn that affects the lives of both.
