Academy Award winner Tilda Swinton personally conducts an intimate cinematic commemoration of the life, times, and work of UK filmmaker, artist, and renegade Derek Jarman in Derek. Isaac Julien's (Young Soul Rebels, Looking for Langston) documentary blends together vintage clips from Jarman's groundbreaking experimental theatrical works and 8mm films, never-before-seen footage from the sets of his Queer Cinema milestone Sebastiane and films like Caravaggio and Wittgenstein, and revealing interview footage shot shortly before Jarman's death in 1994. In his own words and the words of those who knew him best, Derek reveals Jarman's religion-scarred beginnings and his ascent in the vibrant UK counterculture of the 60s and the London punk scene of the 70s. Also covered are his eight film collaborations with muse, companion and collaborator Tilda Swinton, his influential music videos for The Smiths and The Pet Shop Boys, and Jarman's contributions to a British art scene he helped to redefine. Both a heartbreaking and giddily alive biopic and an accomplished homage, this is a joyful requiem celebrating Derek Jarman's life, vision and legacy with the same maverick energy and affectionate creativity that made its subject one of the most important artistic mirrors of his time. Also check out the other documentary about him, Derek Jarman : Life as Art.
