Program Notes

Winner of three awards at this year’s Venice Film Festival—including the esteemed FIPRESCI Prize for Best Film and the Volpi Cup for Best Actor (Michael Fassbender)—SHAME is Steve McQueen's brilliant follow up to his acclaimed, highly controversial first film, HUNGER.  Brandon (Fassbender, INGLORIOUS BASTERDS) is a 30-something businessman working long hours by day and engaging in countless sexual encounters at night. While Brandon struggles to control his carnal compulsion, his drifting younger sister (Oscar-nominee Carey Mulligan, AN EDUCATION) moves into his apartment with problems of her own. This tour de force by Steve McQueen is the one of the starkest and most beautifully atmospheric portraits of New York City ever committed to film.
