In a rubble-strewn surveillance state where an endless overseas war props up the repressive regime of the all-seeing Big Brother\, and all dissent is promptly squashed\, a profoundly alienated citizen\, Winston Smith (thrillingly played by John Hurt)\, risks everything for an illicit affair with the rebellious Julia (Suzanna Hamilton)\, defiantly asserting his humanity in the face of soul-crushing conformity. Through vividly grim production design and cinematography by Roger Deakins\, director Michael Radford conjures a bleak vision of postwar Britain as fascistic nightmare—a world all too recognizable as our own. \n\n\n\nThis screening will feature the For the Love of Big Brother score by Eurythmics. \n\n\n\n \n Director: Michael Radford\n Year: 1984\n Country: United Kingdom\, Germany\, Netherlands\n Runtime: 110 minutes URL:https://cstpdx.com/event/1984/ CATEGORIES:sci-fi ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://cstpdx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/1984.jpeg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250730T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250730T210000 DTSTAMP:20260429T024451 CREATED:20250614T190357Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250614T190358Z UID:10001884-1753902000-1753909200@cstpdx.com SUMMARY:EVENING LAND (Church of Film) DESCRIPTION:A vision of an alternate future: three thousand workers at a shipyard in Copenhagen go on strike\, protesting the building of nuclear vessels for what many suspect is a military complex developing in the European Union. Within one week\, a general strike shuts the country down\, a radical cell kidnaps a foreign minister\, and the authoritarian underpinnings of a bourgeois democracy are laid bare. The politicians\, the workers\, the media\, the police\, the extra-parliamentary guerrillas\, all in close-up. EVENING LAND is Peter Watkins’ (The War Game\, Privilege) disturbing\, paranoid\, and controversial docudrama vision of how quickly a country can spin out from radical positive potential toward chaos and reaction.  URL:https://cstpdx.com/event/evening-land/ ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://cstpdx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/eveningland.jpeg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250729T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250729T210000 DTSTAMP:20260429T024451 CREATED:20250423T042831Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250423T042904Z UID:10001832-1753815600-1753822800@cstpdx.com SUMMARY:The Time Masters DESCRIPTION:Directed by visionary science-fiction animator René Laloux (Fantastic Planet) and designed by the legendary Jean Giraud (a.k.a. Mœbius) The Time Masters is a visually fantastic foray into existentialist space adventure.  \n\n\n\nAfter his parents are killed on the dangerous planet Perdide\, young Piel (voiced by Frédéric Legros) survives by maintaining radio contact with Jaffar (Jean Valmont)\, a pilot transporting the exiled Prince Matton (Yves-Marie Maurin) and Princess Belle (Monique Thierry) from their former kingdom. Jaffar seeks the help of Silbad (Michel Elias)\, a cheerful old-timer who knows how to circumvent Perdide’s hazards\, including brain-devouring insects and watery graves. Along the way\, Jaffar and company encounter a pair of impish homunculi stowaways\, identity-less angels controlled by an amorphous hive mind\, and the Masters of Time\, mysterious beings who can bend reality and perhaps reveal to the heroes their secret origins and destinies. \n\n\n\nRestored in 4K in 2023 at the initiative of CITE FILMS in collaboration with the Fondazione Cineteca di Bologna and with the support of the CNC.

TO THE STARS BY HARD WAYS is one of the great classics of Soviet Sci-Fi Cinema\, a sprawling\, visually powerful epic about what it means to be\, and to survive being\, human. Model Yelena Metyolkina became a fashion icon due to the film’s popularity\, and Alexey Rybnikov’s gorgeous ambient score made him a sensation after the film’s enormous success.
