Fiction and reality blur for two childhood friends and their favourite supernatural TV show, from Jane Schoenbrun.
Teenager Owen is just trying to make it through life in the suburbs when his classmate introduces him to a mysterious late-night TV show — a vision of a supernatural world beneath their own. In the pale glow of the television, Owen’s view of reality begins to crack.
From American director Jane Schoenbrun, who worked as a production assistant on the Safdie brothers short films whilst at college, comes I Saw The TV Glow. A daring story with a soundtrack featuring some of the biggest names in music right now, with songs performed by Caroline Polachek, Sloppy Jane, Phoebe Bridgers, Kristina Esfandiari, and Florist, amongst others. Starring Justice Smith and Brigette Lundy-Paine.
