Privilege

Conspiracy theorists will have a field day with this ambitious drama, in which an all-powerful welfare state in a (then) futuristic 1970s England controls the masses via various pop idols. Also on the bill is Wolf Koenig and Roman Kroitor's "Lonely Boy" (1962). Critics Tom Sutpen, Joseph Di Mattia, Glenn Kenny and Vivien Goldman will discuss both works during a postscreening Q&A.
