TRASH & TREASURES presents:
BEGOTTEN
When it debuted in 1989, E. Elias Merhige’s Begotten fascinated and shocked those who witnessed it. Never before had the screen depicted such a primal, existential drama, and it became one of the must-see films of the 1990s. The intervening decades have not diminished the power of this unique motion picture experience. This new 4K restoration reveals the full photographic body of Begotten, preserving its otherworldly organic texture and retaining its visceral impact, a previously unknown life form captured in cinematic amber.
DOORS & DJ SET at 7:00 PM | FILM at 7:30 PM
Opening DJ Set from Topazu, host of Sutro FM’s Celluloid Mixtape, which recently hosted a Begotten-inspired guest mix from Trash & Treasures host Andrew Sainz.
