4K Restoration
With this giddily romantic, exquisitely stylized sophomore feature, Leos Carax cemented his status as one of the boldest filmmakers of his generation. In a world ravaged by STBO, a sexually transmitted disease only acquired by people having sex without any emotion, a rebellious young man (Denis Lavant) is recruited by a veteran criminal (Michel Piccoli) to steal the antidote. He soon falls dangerously in love with his new associate's lover (Juliette Binoche)-an infatuation that catapults him out into the street to run to the pounding beat of David Bowie's "Modern Love" in one of the most exhilarating moments of eighties cinema.
