Through unexpected sabotage and unpredictable loopholes, these films provoke, play, question, and go off script to create subversive social critiques and razor-sharp satire.
New York premiere of a new 35mm restoration for its 30th anniversary!
New media visionary Shu Lea Cheang directs this avant-anarcho eco-satire in which a lesbian couple living on Staten Island find themselves ensnared in a vast conspiracy involving a ghost ship of nuclear refuse, ominous television commercials, and deadly cat food. Envisioning New York City as a toxic waste dump of consumerist detritus, Fresh Kill offers a bracing, queer feminist response to the patriarchal poison of corporate capitalism.
Join us for a Q&A with Cheang following the screening!
