With Romy Schneider, Harvey Keitel, Harry Dean Stanton, Therese Liotard, Max von Sydow
US premiere of a new DCP restoration!
An atmospherically industrial 70s Glasgow stands in for the future in this moody sci-fi drama, in which a conniving television producer recruits Roddy (Keitel) to have a camera implanted in his brain that can broadcast the inner thoughts of a dying woman (Schneider) for a sensational reality television show. This chillingly prescient commentary on media voyeurism is “an exceptional film… as topical today as when it was made” (The Guardian).
