Mutiny in Heaven – Nick Cave and the history of The Birthday Party
◉ About: Mutiny in Heaven tells the story of the legendary experimental post-punk band The Birthday Party in their own words, bringing it to the screen for the first time. This is a gripping tale of rise and fall, exploring themes such as artistic muse, creativity, addiction, fame, interpersonal conflict, and the unique relationship between visionary creativity and self-destruction – all underpinned by the dark, dry humor of each band member. Featuring exclusive, incredibly candid interviews, a wealth of rare and previously unseen archival footage, unreleased tracks, studio recordings, animations, and multimedia content, the film is as visually rich as it is narratively captivating.
◉ Tickets: Aarau, Basel, Winterthur, Bern, Solothurn, Zürich, St. Gallen, Brugg, Wettingen (Romandie > Sept. 2025)
