 Description
[Machine Translation] A futuristic city in the extreme cold, a game of death. The unique sci-fi drama by master filmmaker Robert Altman, featuring Paul Newman and a superb cast, is now available on DVD for the first time! In a futuristic world closed off by snow and ice, a man washes ashore in a deadly town. A man arrives in a dead town and takes part in a strange game. One by one, the participants are killed, and the man discovers that it is a game of eternal death with his life on the line... This is a science fiction film that excels in its depiction of a chilling vision of the future. Many science fiction films depict people who continue to fight despite the hopelessness of the world, but it was quite novel to depict people like those in this film, who only feel alive in a killing game due to their apathy. Later, science fiction entered the era of cyberpunk, in which many cold-hearted images of the future were depicted, and in a sense, this is a pioneering work in this field. The mysterious development of the game is full of the charm of a suspenseful film, but the hero leaving alone at the end of the film is far from painful or exhilarating, and the heavy weight is etched in the film. Commentary leaflet enclosed.
