Model and baker, Sam Homan was a familiar face on the red carpet showcasing his laidback style.

The Morgan model looked cool in a denim shirt, dark chinos while accessorising his look with a maroon beanie, pair of runners and navy jacket.

Based on true events in 2006, the film which is receiving rave reviews centres around troops from the British Army that were stationed on a ridge overlooking the Kajaki Dam, in the remote Helmand province, Afghanistan.

In a dried out river bed one of the soldiers detonates a land mine, blowing off his leg and setting into motion a desperate rescue mission that quickly spirals out of control.

The tense and gripping story unfolds with tragic consequences, which led to Corporal Mark Wright being awarded the George Cross.

The screening featured a Q&A session with Paul Katis and Andre de Lotbiniere from Pukka Films, Scott Kyle one of the stars of the film and former Paratrooper Sargent Stuart Pearson, who lost a leg in the incident depicted in the KAJAKI.
