A young man discovers his girlfriend is pregnant. The responsibilities and pressures of fatherhood soon unfurl around him in a spectacularly surreal fashion. A master of challenging content and form, Lynch’s first feature remained arguably his most raw and wild. Shot in striking black and white, featuring unique, industrial-inspired production design and an ambient soundtrack, Eraserhead is unfiltered Lynch – utterly unique and unsettling.
