In a desolated landscape, Karrer lived for years cut off from the rest of the world, passing his time by staring at dumpsters disappearing under an endless rain. His only social links are the Titanic, a pub where he spends every night, and his boss, Willarsky. Attracted by a woman who sings in this bar, he tries to seduce her.
The first of Béla Tarr's last five films showing at Filmhouse, <i>Damnation</i> is noted by many to be one of the great filmmaker's finest works. The film brings together a team often seen together in Tarr's filmography, with wife Ágnes Hranitzky in the editing room, Mihály Vig (star of <i>Sátántangó</i>) on score duties, and the first writing credit for László Krasznahorkai, the recently-awarded Nobel Prize for literature holding Hungarian novelist whose work Tarr adapted in every feature film he made from <i>Damnation</i> onwards.DramaPT1H56M152026-02-27
