Elizabeth I decides to have a look at
the future kingdom of her namesake.
It is 1977, the year of Elizabeth II’s jubilee,
England is taken over by anarchy and
is dominated by a media tycoon.
A visionary and angry explosion
of Jarman’s talent, between music,
fantastic deliriums, orgies and caustic
irony. The cinematographic equivalent
of punk music’s provocation.
