UCD Science Expression presents ‘Upstream Color’ written and directed by Shane Carruth who won Sundance Film Festival Grand Jury Prize for ‘Primer’ in 2004.
A man and a woman are drawn together, entangled in a lifecycle of an ageless organism. Identity becomes an illusion as they struggle to assemble the loose fragments of wrecked lives.
Carruth’s much anticipated follow up to award winning ‘Primer’ offers a glimpse into the vastness of existence, into our inner nature, that is as equally dreadful, enveloping, and terrifying as it is beautiful
‘Upstream Color’ is splendid, transcendent weirdness' Detroit News
'A sumptuous enigma that's intricately constructed and beautifully shot, a film that would make Terrence Malick blush' The Popcorn Junkie
This special screening is part of an ongoing Public Engagement Programme from UCD Research, UCD Science Expression, which uses film and new media to explore new directions and ideas in science.?
