ABOUT THE FILMS:

DEAD MAN’S WIRE, 2026, Dir. Gus Van Sant, 105 Mins, Row K, USA

Based on a true story, the 1977 kidnapping of a prominent banker grips the nation and turns the abductor into an eccentric outlaw folk hero. As the media frenzy peaks, the standoff becomes a spectacle of desperation, defiance and blurred justice, which resonates even today.

FORMAT: DCP

DRUGSTORE COWBOY, 1989, Dir. Gus Van Sant, 100 Mins, Lionsgate, USA

Bob Hughes is the leader of a “family” of drug users consisting of his wife, Dianne, and another couple who feed their habit by robbing drug stores as they travel across the country. After a tragedy befalls a member of his group, Bob decides he must leave his dysfunctional clan and go straight.
