Horror-noir techno-thriller RED ROOMS (2023)

May 28 : 7:00 pm 9:00 pm

“The French-Canadian shocker Red Rooms comes closer than any film I can recall in squaring up to the darkest implications of the digital age, particularly for those alienated souls known as the Extremely Online… NO ONE I KNOW WHO HAS SEEN RED ROOMS HAS BEEN LEFT UNSHAKEN BY IT.” – Scott Tobias, The Reveal

A cold, claustrophobic descent into the darkest corners of the internet, RED ROOMS is as unsettling as it is compulsively gripping. In a performance of magnificent intensity, Juliette Gariépy stars as the enigmatic Kelly-Anne, a model obsessed with the trial of a man accused of livestreaming murders on the dark web. As she digs deeper, she comes face to face with the most jaw-dropping horrors the web has to offer, including a live auction for a video of the torture and murder of a 13-year-old girl. Scintillating and perverse but never merely exploitative, RED ROOMS is a horror-noir shocker for the information age, a film of slow-burn suspense that subverts contemporary obsessions with true crime, spectatorship, and the pathologies of a life lived online.
