It’s half past two in the morning. She discovers the classic movie “eXistenZ” on Arte. Sleep will not come. With the help of organic umbilical cords, computer games are transmitted directly into the brain in this unreal world. It seems that the plot of the movie eventually unravels, but then you find yourself in a game where your thoughts are dominated by a clear “WTF?”. “eXistenZ” is merely an example of movies whose goal is to intentionally confuse the audience. After the credits roll, however, even big Hollywood productions can reveal themselves to be disturbed. These films can make sense in individual images, but in the overall context, the common thread is missing. “Prometheus” is a good example of this. The title itself suggests that the producer considers his audience to be more intellectually sophisticated. It seems that other films such as “Cloud Atlas” have made no attempt to involve the viewer in the plot. We would like to present a selection of films that can be discussed for hours without reaching a common understanding. You will be left with unsettling impressions and questions from these films that will stay with you long after they have ended.

Tank Girl
It is the year 2033, when a meteorite impact has turned the earth into a merciless desert. The most important resource, water, is managed by Kesslee (Malcolm McDowell). Rebecca, also known as Tank Girl (Lori Petty), works in one of his labor camps and intends to escape. To achieve this goal, she takes down a battle tank. While on the run, she encounters an unusual group of kangaroo people who help her fight Kesslee’s water monopoly. She also blasts “Rat Face” (Iggy Pop) in a brothel before deciding not to escape Kesslee by sucking the slave’s water. Despite its production budget of around 25 million US dollars and its worldwide takings of just under 7 million US dollars, the film is attractive to collectors of quirky cult films. Tank Girl is an unforgettable mix of anarchic humor, post-apocalyptic chaos and unforgettable characters that made this film a cult classic.
