Plot
Visionary artist Matthew Barney makes a bold cinematic return with his three-part opus, a transformative adaptation of Norman Mailer’s Ancient Evenings. Partnering with composer Jonathan Bepler, Barney intricately weaves together narrative cinema with performance art, sculpture, and opera. The film reimagines Mailer’s provocative tale, exploring themes of Egyptian deities and the seven stages of reincarnation while reflecting on the cyclical nature of the American automotive industry. This ambitious project challenges conventional storytelling, inviting viewers into a rich tapestry of myth and modernity.
