World on a Wire, one of the earliest productions to explore virtual reality and simulation theory, was made in 1973 as a two-part mini-series for television and adapted from Daniel F. Galouye’s novel Simulacron-3. Rainer Werner Fassbinder takes a satirical and surreal look at the world of the future in this work. Set in a virtual world simulation developed by a technology company, IKZ, the story revolves around the Simulacron computer project, designed to simulate a fully functional virtual reality with conscious inhabitants. When project leader Henry Vollmer mysteriously dies, his successor, Dr. Fred Stiller, begins to experience strange and inexplicable events. As these anomalies intensify, Stiller suspects that a hidden force may be behind it all.
*There will be a 15-minute break between the two episodes.
