Book tickets
A survivor, provocateur, and true original, Marianne Faithfull has spent more than six decades defying expectations — releasing over 35 albums while constantly reinventing
herself. Made with her full involvement, Broken English is an intimate and unflinching exploration of a fractured yet unbreakable life shaped by fame, creativity and relentless public scrutiny. The film unfolds within The Ministry of Not Forgetting — an imagined, cinematic institution where memory and mythology collide. Featuring a cast led by Tilda Swinton and George MacKay, with powerful, intimate performances from friends and collaborators including Nick Cave & Warren Ellis, Courtney Love and Suki
Waterhouse.
Broken English is a genre-defying act of resilience and rebellion. Marianne Faithfull’s final fearless declaration — her defiant swan song.
