The mythological past and bleak future converge on the sparse, grey streets of London in this cult classic of the punk era.

Queen Elizabeth 1 and her occult aide Dr John Dee (brilliantly played by Jenny Runacre and Richard O'Brien, respectively) travel into the future, encountering the megalomania of big business as well as gangs of violent, marauding killers.
Director Derek Jarman doesn't spare the shocks while electrifying punk rock numbers are delivered by Jayne County and Adam Ant

Derek Jarman's 'Jubilee' is the original punk film and the one closest to the movement's anti-establishment, 'no-future' attitude.

The story sees Queen Elizabeth I transported by the angel Ariel to a bleak England of the future where chaos now reigns. Buckingham Palace has been purchased by a megalomaniac who has transformed it into a recording studio for punk musicians. A group of punk girls pass the time with acts of mindless violence, sex and the occasional murder. Anarchy rules in the UK.

'Jubilee' is a unique experience; the essence of punk captured on film by one of cinema's greatest visionaries.
