PRIMER

2004 | USA | Col. | 77’

Dir.:  Shane Carruth | Scr.: Shane Carruth | Cast: Shane Carruth, David Sullivan.

Two friends and young entrepreneurs develop a device that reduces the apparent mass of any object only to find out that it has unexpected side effects that allow them to do and have seemingly anything they want. Finding the way to take advantage of this opportunity is the first challenge they face. Dealing with its consequences is the next. 

Directed, written, and starring Shane Carruth, Primer was instantly loved by cult audiences and critics alike, partly because of its unimaginable budget of $7,000, but also because it is a witty, clever, realistic, and particularly terrifying thriller about time travel. It was honoured at the Toronto, Chicago, Deauville, and Sundance film festivals, where it won the first prize of the jury for dramatic film.
