The Chicago International Movies and Music Festival kicks off in style tonight with a screening of Revenge of the Mekons, Joe Angio's 2013 documentary on the venerable British art-punk rockers, many of whose members (notably Jon Langford and Sally Timms) now call Chicago home.

Individual tickets to tonight's screening at Lincoln Hall, as well as festival passes, are still available online. Once the pre-sale is finished tickets will only be available at the door. The screening starts at 7:30 p.m. (2424 N. Lincoln Ave.)
