Getting a Hand on "Shame"

A sales poster for "Shame" featuring minimalistic art, surfaced last week, thanks to MFO and Collider:

You see a hand against glass, and a head hiding down maybe from the shame he's feeling.

Or involved with something,

Or who knows until the film comes out.

For those who watched "Hunger" and followed Steve McQueen's work throughout the process, minimalistic is common in his film work.  The first poster for "Hunger" was just a half black, half white poster with a quote from the film.  The second poster for "Hunger" featured the feces painted wall.

Minimal.

But minimal says a lot.  It gets your mind going and thinking, what exactly is this about?  What time in my life do I remember being in that position?  Or others?

This film will start production in January, pretty much right after X-Men is done.  It's one project after another for some time now.
