SCREENING PROGRAMME: MASAO ADACHI
PRISONER / TERRORIST
(2007, 113min, with English subtitles)
TUESDAY 10 JULY, 7pm
As part of our current exhibition The Anabasis.... by Eric Baudelaire, Gasworks ends its programme of films by legendary Japanese film-maker Masao Adachi with Prisoner/Terrorist (2007).
During a suicide attack on an airport, the hand grenade of 'M', one of three terrorists, malfunctions and he is captured. Maltreated in prison, he slowly loses his grip on reality, as is forced to confront his ideological convictions. Prisoner/Terrorist was Adachi’s first film in 35 years and is inspired by Japanese Red Army member Kozo Okamoto, who was imprisoned by the Israeli government after perpetrating the infamous massacre at Lod Airport in 1972.
