The Red Spectacles (4K Restoration)
Mamoru Oshii’s (GHOST IN THE SHELL) first live-action feature is a delirious fusion of science fiction, film noir, and political satire. Returning to Tokyo years after a failed rebellion by his elite Kerberos police unit, Kōichi Todome finds a city warped beyond recognition: a paranoid surveillance state where noodle stands are illegal, loyalties shift like shadows, and reality itself seems to fray. Bleak, absurd, and hallucinatory, THE RED SPECTACLES launches Oshii’s legendary Kerberos Saga with a heady mix of dystopian intrigue and surreal black comedy.
