phantom.ie competition
The description below is what phantom.ie wrote about the film:

This month we are going to squeeze an exclusive preview screening of A Prophet! It's at short notice (this Weds) but it's in a cool little cimema that the movie companies use for previews!
Phantom 105.2 are hosting an preview screening of A PROPHET at Denzille Lane, Dublin 2 on Weds, January 20th. Fancy going? Well enter our simple competition and you could be!
Condemned to six years in prison, Malik El Djebena cannot read nor write. Arriving at the jail entirely alone, he appears younger and more fragile than the other convicts. He is 19 years old. Cornered by the leader of the Corsican gang who rules the prison, he is given a number of “missions” to carry out, toughening him up and gaining the gang leader’s confidence in the process.  But Malik is brave and a fast learner, daring to secretly develop his own plans... A PROPHET is a French language movie (with English sub titles)directed by Jaques Audiard
You must be over 18 to enter this competion (your companion must be 16 or over to attend). Please be sure you enter a valid e-mail address as we will contact all winners via e-mail. Phantom 105.2's competition terms and conditions apply (available on phantom.ie).
