Description

October 18 Only

Director: Andrzej Zulawski
Screenwriter: Frederic Tuten, Andrzej Zulawski
Cast: Isabelle Adjani, Sam Neill


Banned upon its original release in 1981, Andrzej Zulawski’s stunningly choreographed nightmare of a marriage unraveling is an experience unlike any other. Professional spy Mark returns to his West Berlin home to find his wife Anna insistent 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 haunting performances ever captured on screen, Possession is cinematic delirium at its most intoxicating.
