strange days
Kathryn Bigelow
Set in the year 1999 during the last days of the old millennium, the movie tells the story of Lenny Nero, an ex-cop who now deals with data-discs containing recorded memories and emotions. One day he receives a disc which contains the memories of a murderer killing a prostitute. Lenny investigates and is pulled deeper and deeper in a whirl of blackmail, murder and rape. Will he survive and solve the case?
Unappreciated when it when out, this cyberpunk thriller refers to the riots of 1992 in Los Angeles which took place after the Rodney King killing.
