From John Sayles, one of the essential, iconoclastic voices of American independent cinema, comes Silver City, a film that is equal parts scathing political lampoon and sun-stunned neo-noir detective story.

Whilst shooting an environmental television ad, Senator Pilager, a nervous and grammatically challenged candidate for local governor, casts his line into pristine waters only to snag a battered corpse. Realising the threat to Pilager's ferocious campaign manager, hires Danny O'Brien (Danny Huston), a formerly idealistic journalist turned rumpled private detective, to investigate.

In the tradition of the great film noirs, from The Maltese Falcon to Chinatown, Danny's investigation inexorably pulls him deeper and deeper into a complex web of influence and corruption, here involving high stakes lobbyists, media conglomerates, environmental plunderers, and undocumented migrant workers.
