SXSW Presents ENTER THE VOID




SXSW Presents:
ENTER THE VOID
Sunday 1/2, 950pm & Saturday 1/8, 3pm @Ritz

Advance tickets available here


For two Austin-exclusive shows, we’re showing the uncut, uncensored, complete version of ENTER THE VOID at the Ritz in a brand new 35mm print!

“Using three distinct point-of-view visual styles and a riot of color, effects and sound, Noé orchestrates the final mortal and metaphysical passage of an American dope dealer named Oscar (Nathaniel Brown), who lives in a seedy district of Tokyo. For the first half-hour, we see what Oscar sees (including the occasional image flicker to represent blinking eyes): the day-glo cityscape outside his dark, messy apartment; his sister Linda (Paz de la Huerta) leaving for her degrading stripper job; and, most notably, the pulsating, phosphorescent shapes from a powerful hallucinogen Oscar takes.” -Robert Abele, Los Angeles Times

The resulting film is an experience, one that is completely immersive. You will be in a Tokyo rave nightmare, in a delirium along with Oscar and Linda as they get lost in the neon abyss. This is a visual masterpiece, a piece of cinema that looks like nothing you’ve ever seen before.

And it absolutely HAS to be seen on the big screen, in 35mm, in an auditorium full of bursting synapses. Do not miss your only chance to see this year’s controversial, mind-bending, art house milestone!

At the Sunday evening show, we'll be offering an Absinthe drink special to help put this experience over the edge of psychedelia!
