Broken English

A courageous portrait of the inimitable singer, songwriter, and icon Marianne Faithfull. Undaunted, provocative, and authentic, Marianne has spent more than sixty years subverting expectations, releasing over thirty-five albums and continually reinventing herself. The film explores a fractured yet indestructible life, shaped by fame, creativity, and the relentless judgment of the public. The setting is an imaginary cinematic institution born from the collision of memory and mythology, called the Ministry of Unforgetting. Broken English is an act of rebellion against every narrative genre: Marianne Faithfull’s final statement, her rebellious swan song.
