DOX and the Ponrepo Cinema invite you to a series of summer movie nights under the stars and in the universe of David Lynch with Lost Highway.
The screening will be introduced by film critic Martin Pleštil.
“The central point of Lost Highway is not its protagonist but rather his misunderstanding – or, more generally, the elusiveness – of the nature of female desire.” – Slavoj Žižek
Musician Fred Madison begins receiving mysterious VHS tapes with recordings of him and his wife in their home, and he is troubled by the idea that she is having an affair. After he is suddenly convicted of her murder, he inexplicably vanishes from his prison cell, and a young, carefree mechanic named Pete appears in his place. In this cult classic, which was misunderstood by critics of the time, David Lynch returns to Los Angeles (specifically to a house in the Hollywood Hills which would become his home and studio in real life as well).
Thanks to its restlessness and eerily ambient sound design, the looping and fractured narrative of this nocturnal neo-noir is distinctly oneiric, but it attempts to merge its abstract plane with the legacy of the most idiosyncratic noir films. The term “fever dream” can be applied to all of Lynch’s films, but the label is perhaps most fitting for Lost Highway. Moreover, nowhere can you hear such a riveting use of David Bowie’s music as in the opening and closing credits of this film with the song “I’m Deranged”.

DOX Summer Cinema – David Lynch Season
DOX and the Ponrepo Cinema invite you to a series of summer movie nights under the stars and in the unfathomable, mysterious, and deeply captivating universe of David Lynch. High-quality headphone sound, views of the Gulliver Airship, and refreshing summer drinks and nine screenings.
Blue Velvet – SOLD OUT
The dark film, which smacks of sex, drugs, and ’60s suburbia, is at times a coming-of-age flick, at times a noir whodunit, and for the most part an undeniably and unexpectedly violent thriller. The movie is screened in the DOX Summer Cinema on the terrace of DOX+.
Persona – SOLD OUT
From Ibsen, Pirandello and Vertov to Bergman's contemporaries and everything we affectionately refer to as ‘Lynchian’, films full of doubles, repressed sexual tension and the schizophrenic nature of the acting profession. The movie is screened in the DOX Summer Cinema on the terrace of DOX+.
