Upstream Color

An hallucinatory cinematic experience that defies categorisation, the amazing and audacious UPSTREAM COLOR is the highly anticipated second film from Sundance Grand Jury Prize winner Shane Carruth (PRIMER).

Kris is abducted from a bar and forced to ingest a drug that renders her susceptible to persuasion. When she awakens from her trance she discovers that life as she knew it has fallen apart. After some time, she meets Jeff on a train, and soon realizes she might not be the only one to have experienced this ordeal, and that something bigger is going on.
