Sans Soleil & Total Recall (with Joe MacDonald)

Returning champion Joe MacDonald joins us in the basement as we look at the intersection of memory and technology, the past and the future.
Sans Soleil (1983) Chris Marker's galaxy-brained video essay moves from Africa to Japan as the french filmmaker pontificates on a range of topics, particularly how tech has shaped our relationship to memory.
Total Recall (1990) Dutch maverick Paul Verhoeven loosely adapts Philip K Dick's 'We Can Remember It For You Wholesale', in the processing creating both an entertaining Arnold vehicle and a typically subversive examination of America's fantasies.
