Seberg

• Thriller
• Drama

Amidst the burgeoning civil rights movement of the late 1960s, ‘Seberg’ unravels a chilling psychological thriller centered not on grand conspiracies, but on the intimate and insidious surveillance of actress Jean Seberg. The film depicts a haunting atmosphere of paranoia and betrayal as an ambitious FBI agent becomes obsessed with discrediting Seberg due to her vocal support for Black activism and her personal life. It’s a story less about solving a crime, and more about the corrosive impact of institutional power and the deliberate dismantling of a public figure’s life, leaving a lingering sense of unease regarding the cost of political dissent and the violation of privacy. The film’s power resides in its unsettling realism, focusing on the systematic erosion of an individual’s identity through relentless scrutiny and fabricated narratives, offering a starkly contemplative look at American history.
