The Australian Centre for the Moving Image (ACMI) presents the Melbourne premiere season of one of 2011's most talked about documentaries, The Interrupters, which will premiere exclusively at ACMI from 15 to 31 January 2012.

Described as "direct cinema at its most engrossing" (Film Comment, 2011), The Interrupters follows a year in the lives of three dedicated individuals who try to protect their Chicago communities from the violence they themselves once employed.
