SYNOPSIS: Every year on his birthday, Krapp has tape-recorded an assessment of his life so far. Now, having just turned 69, he listens with mixed emotions to the tape he made 30 years earlier. Anger and regret entwine in ironic counterpoint with a memory of epiphany, just as the voice of Krapp’s long-ago self counterpoints the new recording he now begins to make.

Directed by and Starring Gary Oldman
