With actor Bill Pullman live in person!
A surreal fantasia -- part grindhouse mutant and part arthouse object -- that imagines a day in the summer of 1974 when America's
greatest science-fiction writer, William J. Frick (inspired by the public
life of Philip K. Dick and portrayed by Bill Pullman) wakes up to discover
he is living inside his own paranoid science fiction.
A brilliant explorer of the tenuous borders between reality, fantasy, memory
and hallucination, Frick is also a speed-snorting nervous wreck with
two ex-wives, a houseful of skanky bikers, and a 'you-are-served' letter
from the IRS. On the brink of completing his masterpiece -- an account of his encounter with God at a Boyle Heights taco stand -- Bill does a bump of magic powder, passes out, and comes to only to discover he's living in an alternate reality.and then another...and another...and another.
"A tragicomic maelstrom of psychic disintegration, shot on Roger Corman
means and cast with a cult-movie dream team, Matthew Wilder's
head-scrambling flea circus fever dream of the recombinant life and work of
Philip K. Dick is easily the most audacious biopic since CONFESSIONS OF A
DANGEROUS MIND and I'M NOT THERE." - Jim Ridley, The Village Voice
