Why we chose it

Shot in black and white on almost no money, in natural light, Christopher Nolan’s debut is still a legend of nineties independent cinema. Everything he would go on to make is already there, from the labyrinthine plot to the obsession with control and the sense that nobody’s identity is quite solid.

Synopsis

A young writer starts following strangers through the streets of London, telling himself they’re material for his observations. The habit begins innocently enough, but it turns into a dangerous ritual once he meets Cobb, a charismatic burglar who shows him a world of manipulation, where personality is a performance and right and wrong come loose.
