JESUS SHOWS YOU THE WAY TO THE HIGHWAY

Miguel Llansó, Spain, 2019, Arrow Films, Cult

“Maybe the truest approximation of a late period Philip K. Dick novel.” -- Justin Decloux, LETTERBOXD

What do you get when you cross Afro-futurism, Cold War paranoia, and a hefty dose of Lynch-ian surrealism? The answer: JESUS SHOWS YOU THE WAY TO THE HIGHWAY, the second feature by Miguel Llansó (CRUMBS) and one of the most striking and original films of the 21st century. The year is 2035, and Special Agent Gagano dreams of leaving the CIA to open a business with his wife Malin. But before he can hand in his resignation, a strange cyber virus attacks Psychobook, the CIA’s operating system, forcing Gagano to enter cyberspace via virtual reality to combat the threat. Shot on 16mm and featuring encounters with an Irish-accented Joseph Stalin, a kung-fu-fighting Batman, and Jesus Christ himself, JESUS SHOWS YOU THE WAY TO THE HIGHWAY is absurd, audacious, and unlike anything you’ve ever experienced.
