Tarr’s masterwork is set in a remote town where order, meaning, and reason are about to break down for reasons left unexplained. With minutely observed detail, and in only 39 shots, Tarr presents a society poised between civility and barbarism, only steps away from either inertia or apocalypse. 2001, 35mm, 145 mins.
