Slowly-gripping, bleak study of electronic surveillance and the threat of new technologies, examined through the private, internalized life of Harry Caul, a lonely and detached expert "bugger". The conspiracy thriller is an effective character study that exposes the emerging conscience of an estranged eavesdropper.

Harry Caul, un especialista en vigilancia y sistemas de seguridad cuyo prestigio es reconocido por sus colegas de todo el país, recibe el encargo por parte de un magnate de investigar a su joven esposa. Deberá escuchar sus conversaciones con uno de sus empleados del que parece estar enamorada. La misión, para un experto de su categoría, resulta a primera vista inexplicable ya que la pareja no ofrece ningún interés fuera de lo corriente. Sin embargo, cuando Harry da por finalizado su trabajo, advierte que algo extraño se oculta tras la banalidad que ha estado investigando.

Terry Zwigoff’s landmark 1995 film is an intimate documentary portrait of the underground artist Robert Crumb, whose unique drawing style and sexually and racially provocative subject matter have made him a household name in popular American art. Zwigoff candidly and colorfully delves into the details of Crumb’s incredible career and life, including his family of reclusive eccentrics, some of the most remarkable people you’ll ever see on-screen. At once a profound biographical portrait, a riotous examination of a man’s controversial art, and a devastating look at a troubled family, Crumb is a genuine American original.
