Hardcore - Ein Vater sieht rot

Downtown Los Angeles. Christmas week. A ringing phone. Jake Van Dorn arrives to claim his daughter, Kristen. She is not there. A private investigator leads him into the labyrinth of the San Fernando Valley's adult film industry. Schrader's grim, neon-lit descent mirrors his *Taxi Driver* milieu.
