The Limits of Control (2009)
★ 6.0 · 312 ratings on TMDB
For every way in, there is another way out.
A mysterious stranger works outside the law and keeps his objectives hidden, trusting no one. While his demeanor is paradoxically focused and dreamlike all at once, he embarks on a journey that not only takes him across Spain, but also through his own consciousness.
DirectorJim Jarmusch
The emergence reading
The Limits of Control keeps every mind human — it fights its subject at zero distance. The story fights on E8 of the E0–E14 reality ladder, compressing purpose, identity, freedom.
