Primer
U.S., 2004
Writer-director Shane Carruth’s debut feature transforms the modern myth of the tinkering entrepreneur into a tight sci-fi thriller that works as a sharp metaphor for the dangers of technocapitalism. Working in his garage, Aaron (Carruth) and his friend Abe (David Sullivan) stumble onto the secret of time travel but in attempting to exploit it, quickly find themselves grappling with the dire unintended consequences of their invention. Though dense with technical explication, the story nevertheless zips along as economically as Carruth’s own low-budget inventiveness which earned him the Grand Jury Prize at Sundance where it premiered.
35mm, color, 77 min. Director: Shane Carruth. Screenwriter: Shane Carruth. With: Shane Carruth, David Sullivan.
