In 2029, as the war between man and machine is relentless, two soldiers are sent back in time to 1984 Los Angeles to alter the outcome of a conflict that has not yet arrived. Cyborg assassin The Terminator (Arnold Schwarzenegger) and human resistance fighter Kyle Reese (Michael Biehn) both have the same target: Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton), a young woman whose unborn child will eventually determine the fate of humanity. Launching the career of director James Cameron, The Terminator is back as part of National Art House Theater Day for its 40th anniversary.
