The Film-Makers' Cooperative is excited to present a newly acquired 16mm print of Nightmare Angel, Zoe Beloff’s rarely-screened early adaptation of J.G. Ballard’s seminal novel Crash, made nine years before David Cronenberg adapted it into a feature. Drawing also from Ballard’s The Atrocity ExhibitionNightmare Angel follows a couple in the aftermath of a car crash, exploring the dark possibilities of machine as extension of the body and how a rapidly changing techno-industrial landscape can rework our innermost selves and desires.

The 33-minute film will be followed by a conversation between filmmaker Zoe Beloff and curator (and Ballard enthusiast) Robert Schneider.
