Derek Jarman's second feature transports Queen Elizabeth I (Jenny Runacre) through time from 1578 to 1978, where she sees what has become of her once glorious kingdom: law and order have broken down, punks roam the streets, decay and desolation eat away at the basic fabric of society. With a cast featuring the likes of Adam Ant and Toyah Wilcox, a vivid take on the post-apocalyptic urban landscape, and plenty of random violence, this is the ultimate punk movie.
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. A megalomaniac who has transformed it into a recording studio for punk musicians has purchased Buckingham Palace. 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.
