About this event
Screening as part of STAB! Andrzej Zulawski’s stunningly choreographed nightmare of a marriage unraveling is an experience unlike any other. Professional spy Mark (Sam Neill) returns to his West Berlin home to find his wife Anna (Isabelle Adjani, in a role that earned her Best Actress at both Cannes and the César Awards) intent on a divorce. As Anna’s frenzied behavior becomes ever more alarming, Mark discovers a truth far more sinister than his wildest suspicions. With its pulsating score, visceral imagery, and some of the most intense performances ever captured on-screen, POSSESSION is cinematic delirium at its most intoxicating. This screening is 18+ and the film will begin at the advertised time above.
