WAR REQUIEM
DOCUMENTARY

ABOUT
Filmed over 12 months, with unprecedented access, this landmark film tells the story of how the English National Opera re-imagined Benjamin Britten’s War Requiem – one of the greatest choral works of the 20th century.
With exclusive behind-the-scenes access, Speakit follows the Turner-prize winning artist Wolfgang Tillmans as he collaborates with the ENO to turn Britten’s passionate statement about the futility of war, into a critically-acclaimed performance at the London Coliseum.
