Fresh kill

Blu-ray - 2026

A disturbingly prescient ecofeminist parable and a brain-wave-scrambling cyberpunk fantasia, the debut feature from new-media pioneer Shu Lea Cheang merges a bold vision of resistance with an exuberant early-internet aesthetic. In a dystopian-chic New York where sushi joints and toxic-waste sites exist side by side, a lesbian turn to the hacker underground to solve their daughter₂s disappearance, in the process exposing a conspiracy involving corporate greenwashing and tainted fish. Swinging between outř satire and agitprop, Fresh Kill sounds the alarm about a capitalist system that pollutes everything from our waterways to our bodies to our minds.
