Premiere of The Eternity Man + ScreenTalk with director Julien Temple


UK theatrical premiere of Julien Temple's stunning contemporary opera on film The Eternity Man and ScreenTalk with director Julien Temple

Barbican Film is delighted to host a UK theatrical premiere of this stunning contemporary opera on film and welcome director Julien Temple to discuss the work following the screening.

For almost 40 years, Arthur Stace, an ex-alcoholic war veteran, skulked through the nocturnal streets of Sydney , chalking the word 'Eternity' in perfect copperplate script.

Director Julien Temple's bravura treatment of the stage opera by Australian composer Jonathan Mills and poet Dorothy Porter presents a wild, intoxicated vision of a man - and a city - undergoing violent change.
