DECODER

Muscha, Germany, 1984, Interzone Pictures, Cult

Aside from leg warmers, MTV and arcade games, the Eighties was a time of searing paranoia, increased surveillance and mutated sex…all reflected in underground cult classics of the era like LIQUID SKY, REPO MAN and CAFE FLESH. This pantheon wouldn’t be complete without DECODER: the masterpiece of German punk surrealism. Co-starring F.M. Einheit (of Einstürzende Neubauten), William Burroughs and the IRL Christiane F., this criminally underseen immersive mood piece blends arresting New Wave visuals, industrial aesthetics, fast-food satire, real-life street protest chaos, a Philip K. Dick-ian sci-fi mindset, vaporwavey liminal space and moments of shocking violence that will destroy you. Buckle up!
