Why we chose it

The ghost of an America long-gone comes to life in Jim Jarmusch’s masterpiece Western that deconstructs and reassembles the codes of the genre through Johnny Depp’s melancholic eyes, Neil Young’s chilling guitar strums and Robby Müller’s cinematography.

Synopsis

William Blake travels to the Western frontier of America. Lost and wounded, he will encounter a strange Native American man, named “Nobody”, who believes Blake is his dead English poet namesake.
