Description
Piotr Szulkin's Kafkaesque science-fiction allegory
In a bleak dystopian future, a solitary worker suffers a breakdown after being interrogated about crimes he has no recollection of committing. Is he a real human, or a clone created by scientists in an attempt to engineer a new, more submissive race of humans?
A dark satire of Communist Poland in the late 1970s, Piotr Szulkin's Kafkaesque science-fiction allegory is a precursor to Blade Runner, and evokes the post-apocalyptic landscape of Andrei Tarkovsky's Stalker. Its troubling depiction of irresponsible science, fake news and unfettered AI now make it all the more prescient.
This set also includes for the first time anywhere on Blu-ray a selection of Piotr Szulkin's early short film works, newly remastered in HD.
