Naked

David Thewlis depicts philosopher Johnny, the ultimate antihero of our time, an unemployed Mancunian who vents his rage on unsuspecting strangers as he embarks on a nocturnal London odyssey.

Preceded by The Black Tower (John Smith, 1985-87, 23 mins). Situating itself firmly in the quotidian grit of Thatcher’s Britain, The Black Tower follows an unnamed narrator who descends into madness while being haunted by a mysterious, peripatetic black tower that he believes is following him around London. 16mm print!
