Rollerball screening (2018-Jul-28 @ 6:30 p.m.)
2018-Jul-28 @ 18:30 - 20:35
The Flying Squirrel will screen Rollerball (Norman Jewison, U.K. / U.S. 2018, 125 min.) as part of the Déjà view Film Series which "presents yesterday's films today, as viewed through a socialist lens."
What did 2018 look like to people in 1975? For starters, governments are obsolete, a handful of companies run the world, and libraries can only offer edited summaries of texts. Come see what the filmmakers got right, and what they got wrong. Rollerball also offers, arguably, the best-ever footage of a fake sport.
