Bill is a wealthy businessman whose beautiful, promising daughter has just decided to run away with her heroin-addicted boyfriend. Whilst wandering the city streets in search his daughter, Bill takes refuge in a downtown bar where he meets Joe, a frustrated, patriotic, bigoted and hateful factory worker. Striking up an unlikely friendship both head off into the night intent on tracking down Bill’s daughter and putting the world to right. A destination and an objective that finally leads to a dark and unforgettable climax.  Extremely controversial and notorious on its initial release in 1970, Joe has since become a rarely seen cult gem. Symbolising the conflict between the counter culture and the establishment, Joe daringly reflects a country in turmoil and a society fraying at the edges.
