              Overview

              One of the most startlingly original films of recent years, voted by Sight and Sound critics as one of the best of 2013, Upstream Colour is the long-awaited second feature from acclaimed director Shane Carruth (Primer). In elusive and elliptical style, it follows the two lovers’ recovery from the effects of a mind altering parasite, which they’ve been purposefully exposed to by a mysterious criminal.
