Dir: Justin Kurzel. Australia 2024. 105 min
This artful, devastatingly human documentary is an intimate portrait of iconic Australian musician and composer Warren Ellis.
Director Jason Kurzel paints a vivid portrait of Ellis – a member of rock groups The Dirty Three and Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, a doting son to his father and co-founder of a wildlife sanctuary in the forests of Sumatra.
Featuring music by the man himself (reflecting the film’s richly emotional tone) and imbued with a natural candor, Ellis Park is a truly inspiring film.
“Ellis Park moves to a strange and interesting melody… swelling and shrinking, expanding and contracting, right in front of us.” – The Guardian
“It’s a profoundly moving film of an artist looking at another and uncovering the person behind the act. It left me an emotional wreck by the end.” – Toisto
*Contains flashing images, distressing scenes and animal cruelty.
