SCREENING

Kill Daddy Good Night

Ongoing

Dir. Michael Glawogger. 2009, 110 mins. With Helmut Köpping, Christian Tramitz, Sabine Timoteo. Ratz, a Viennese computer programmer consumed with patricidal hatred, has devoted himself to creating a game centered on the virtual killing of his father, a hypocritical politician. A call from an ex-girlfriend leads him to New York, and to an unexpected find in a Long Island basement. Freely adapted from the novel Das Vaterspiel by Josef Haslinger, Kill Daddy Good Night is equal parts thriller, family drama, and examination of historical memory.

Free with Museum admission.
