Overview |
Dave McKean presents THE GOSPEL OF US, the film adaptation of the ground-breaking theatre event starring Michael Sheen. Taking inspiration from one of the defining narratives of our times, this contemporary re-telling of the Passion story took place across Port Talbot, with the townspeople as its cast, crew and heroes.
Easter. Port Talbot is in a battle for its life: the town is in thrall to a sinister and ruthless corporation intent on plundering the town's natural resources. Two sides are at war and catastrophe appears inevitable until a softly spoken man mysteriously arrives. Revealed as the Teacher, he gathers followers and becomes a focus for the Resistance, but the powers-that-be perceive him as a danger who must be removed at all costs. |
