Neptune Frost
Directed by Saul Williams, Anisia Uzeyman
Produced by Quiet, Knitting Factory Entertainment
A visually stunning, genre-defying afrofuturist musical that weaves together queer intimacy, anti-colonial resistance, and spiritual transcendence amid the wreckage of digital capitalism.
In the hilltops of Burundi, a group of escaped coltan miners form an anti-colonialist computer hacker collective. From their camp in an otherworldly e-waste dump, they attempt a takeover of the authoritarian regime exploiting the region's natural resources – and its people. When an intersex runaway and an escaped coltan miner find each other through cosmic forces, their connection sparks glitches within the greater divine circuitry.
