Lonely railway worker Maloin leads a simple, humrum life with
his teenage daughter and high-strung wife (superbly played by
Academy Award-winning actress Tilda Swinton) at the edge of an
infinite sea. He barely notices the world around him, and has
already accepted its slow and inevitable deterioration. His inner
life is suddenly thrown into chaos after he stumbles upon a deadly
business transaction that leaves him with a money-stuffed
suitcase and a guilty conscious for a crime he didn't commit.
Another existential dazzler from one of cinema's most stunning
and austere filmmakers, Béla Tarr's The Man From London is a
breathtaking exploration of man's indestructible desire for
freedom and happiness.
