Synopsis:
Visionary artist Matthew Barney returns to cinema with this 3-part epic, a radical reinvention of Norman Mailers novel Ancient Evenings. In collaboration with composer Jonathan Bepler, Barney combines traditional modes of narrative cinema with filmed elements of performance, sculpture, and opera, reconstructing Mailers hypersexual story of Egyptian gods and the seven stages of reincarnation, alongside the rise and fall of the American car industry.
