Showroom Cinema’s Béla Tarr retrospective continues with a new 4K restoration of Damnation, the first of his internationally acclaimed trilogy of films written in collaboration with author László Krasznahorkai.

In a desolated landscape, Karrer lived for years cut off from the rest of the world, passing his time by staring at dumpsters disappearing under an endless rain. His only social links are the Titanic, a pub where he spends every night, and his boss, Willarsky. Attracted by a woman who sings in this bar, he tries to seduce her.
