(Glastonbury), Julien Temple / VB, 2006
English version / Czech subtitles, 126 min
Glastonbury is the burial place of King Arthur and symbolic of the reconciliation of Celt and Saxon, where Joseph of Arimithea is said to have walked "on England's green and pleasant land." It is also the site of the UK's loudest, longest-lived and most notorious rock festival. The latest film from pop culture legnd Julien Temple, this is an anarchic celebration not only of the legendary acts who have graced its stages, but of the carnivalesque atmosphere that has endowed it with almost mystical significance since its inception. With thunderous perfomances from the likes of Joe Strummer, the Velvet Underground, the Chemical Brothers, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds and Massive Attack, and philosophical commentary from the festival's founder.
