Lydia Lunch: The War Is Never Over +intro

This session includes an in-person introduction from Lydia Lunch. LYDIA LUNCH - The War Is Never Over by Beth B is the first career-spanning documentary retrospective of Lydia Lunch's confrontational, acerbic and always electric artistry. As New York City's preeminent No Wave icon from the late '70s, Lunch has forged a lifetime of music and spoken word performance devoted to the utter right of any woman to indulge, seek pleasure, and to say "fuck you!" as loud as any man. In this time of endless attacks on women this is a rallying cry to acknowledge the only thing that is going to bring us together - ART...as the universal salve to all of our traumas. Features interviews with Lydia Lunch as well as some of her collaborators and colleagues including: Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth; performance artist Kembra Pfahler; Teenage Jesus bass player, Jim Sclavunos (also of Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds); Donita Sparks from L7; famed DJ and musician Nicolas Jaar; Art Critic Carlo McCormick; Filmmaker Richard Kern and a long list of other groundbreaking artists connected to Lunch's past and present. Lydia Lunch will be touring Australia in June 2026 performing the Songs of Suicide and Alan Vega as well as some spoken word shows also featuring a soundscape and electronic set from Tex Perkins.DocumentaryPT1H30MCTC2026-06-16
