GAME CHANGERS | There Will be Blood

Paul Thomas Anderson
Mon 18 May 20:00

"There will be greed. There will be vengeance."

Early 20th century. When Daniel Plainview receives a mysterious tip about a small town in the West where oil is said to be practically gushing from the ground, he sets out on an adventure with his young son H.W., heading toward the dusty town of Little Boston.

THERE WILL BE BLOOD

In this ruthless town, where local entertainment is limited to the Hallelujah Church of the charismatic preacher Eli Sunday, Plainview and H.W. make their move.

But even as the oil makes them rich, nothing remains the same when conflicts escalate and all human values—love, hope, faith, ambition, community, and even the bond between father and son—come under fire as a result of corruption, deceit, and the freely flowing oil.

GAME CHANGERS

Every third Monday of the month, it’s GAME CHANGERS at Natlab. On this evening, an iconic film classic is screened. Before the screening, film lecturer Twan Arts gives a masterclass explaining what makes the selected film a true game changer.
