The City & the City

David Morrissey (The Walking Dead) leads this distinctive and immersive genre-busting thriller adapted by Tony Grisoni (Red Riding) from the critically acclaimed novel by renowned fantasy writer China Mieville. In this extraordinary story, which will bend the mind as well as the senses, Inspector Borluof the Extreme Crime Squad investigates the murder of a student whose body is found on the rundown streets of Beszel. Cases like this are run of the mill for Borlu - until he discovers evidence that the victim had been visiting Beszels prosperous neighboring city, Ul Qoma. This shouldn't be possible as citizens of each city are forbidden from seeing or interacting with each other, and borders are policed by the terrifying Breach. As he attempts to solve the case, Borlu comes to realize he has a personal connection to the crimes and must embark on an odyssey of the mind to find the truth he has always been seeking.
