Join us in the microcinema for the new restoration of Michael Almereyda’s gorgeous vampiric slow burn Nadja. Merging elements from Dracula’s Daughter (1936) with André Breton’s surrealist novel Nadja (1928), and fusing shimmering black-and-white 35mm with hallucinatory Pixelvision video, Michael Almereyda’s acclaimed cult film centers on New York-based vampire Nadja (Elina Löwensohn) as she draws close to her twin brother Edgar (Jared Harris) following their father’s death at the hands of Dr. Van Helsing (Peter Fonda). Edgar’s private nurse (Suzy Amis), Van Helsing’s nephew Jim (Martin Donovan), and Jim’s wife (Galaxy Craze) are entangled in the story as the vampire killer pursues “the fiend” from Manhattan to Transylvania. Executive produced by David Lynch. Breathtaking, ethereal, and magnificently ponderous, this undead indie treasure is a timeless unsung genre triumph.
Restoration Info
The original Director’s Cut of NADJA was digitally restored by Arbelos and Grasshopper Film from the only extant element, the 35mm answer print—the version of the film that premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival in 1994, three minutes longer than the commercial release. Laboratory services by OCN Labs, Five Seventy Films, Ben Gilbert Films, David Ferron and Blackhawk Films. Special thanks to Michael Almereyda and Absurda.
