Marking the 50th anniversary of Robert Wyatt's iconic album Rock Bottom, María Trénor's remarkable animated feature takes us on a psychedelic trip through a time when Bob met his partner Alif.
The two young artists become immersed in the creative whirlwind of early 70s hippie culture when Bob has a terrible accident.
Transcending biography and weaving a poetic tapestry of love and artistic creation, Rock Bottom is a hallucinatory Romeo and Juliet, navigating a world of art and altered realities. The film earned Trénor Cartoon Movie’s Director of the Year accolade, and it’s not hard to see why. It pulsates with the album's music, brought to life through vibrant, watercolour animation.
Can't make this time? Rock Bottom is also screening Sunday 11th May at 7.30pm.
