A nighttime taxi ride through five cities where strangers meet—and stay just long enough to change each other's world for a moment.
Spanning across five cities and time zones, Night on Earth follows a series of taxi rides that play out in real time. Jim Jarmusch bases the film on conversations—alternately comedic, awkward, and revealing—between drivers and passengers who temporarily share the same space. With actors such as Winona Ryder, Gena Rowlands, and Roberto Benigni, each segment takes on its own tone within a clear, repetitive structure. The film's strength lies in its simplicity: an observation of fleeting encounters that exposes both distance and connection.
The Films of Jim Jarmusch
On the occasion of the release of Father Mother Sister Brother, we welcome an essential selection of Jim Jarmusch's 80s and 90s films back to the big screen. His films move effortlessly across borders and cultures, populated by outsiders, nocturnal wanderers, and quietly charismatic mavericks. By defying the gravity of Hollywood, Jarmusch has built a oeuvre that is simultaneously minimalist and distinctly cosmopolitan. Seeing them again now reveals a cinema that doesn't so much age as continue to resonate—like a half-forgotten song that keeps playing somewhere in the background.
