Decoder

In this cult classic 1984 West German film, a government agent's efforts to suppress dissent are disrupted when a musician discovers that replacing calming background music with abrasive industrial tunes can spark riots, setting off a revolution. A low-budget production featuring an all-star cast from the countercultural and industrial music scenes, "Decoder" is a thought-provoking exploration of the power of sound and its impact on human behavior. Directed by Muscha, this cyberpunk film is loosely based on the writings of William S. Burroughs and remains a fascinating example of 80s counter-culture cinema.
