5) Broken English (2025)

Release date TBD, maybe sometime in 2026

With Marianne Faithful, Tilda Swinton, George MacKay, Sophia Di Martino, Zawe Ashton, Nick Cave, Kerry Shale and many others.

Directed by: Iain Forsyth, Jane Pollard
Screenwriters: Iain Forsyth, Jane Pollard, Ian Martin, Will Maclean
Initial release: August 30th, 2025 (Venice Film Festival)

"A fittingly weird and wacky portrait of a woman whose career was full of swerves and swoops, this feature flutters between docu-style, seemingly unrehearsed conversations with Faithfull herself in her last months; reflections on her legacy from a studio of female intellectuals; covers of her songs by eminent admirers (such as Beth Orton and Courtney Love); and little bits of staged and written dramatic vignettes, performed by the likes of Tilda Swinton, George MacKay, Sophia Di Martino and Zawe Ashton among others, all pretending to be bureaucrats employed at the Ministry of Not Forgetting."
