Lydia Lunch: The War is Never Over is a deep dive into the Iife and work of the fearIess musician and performer Lydia Lunch that echoes the urgent, aggressive, unapoIogetic attitude that Lunch inhabits. Lunch hit the Iate 1970s New York City downtown scene with the band Teenage Jesus And The Jerks, a centraI pilIar of the No Wave music movement. Since then, she has forged paths in the underground fiIm scene as a director, actor, Iecturer and women’s empowerment coach, feminist writer and spoken word performer. Directed by boundary-breaking fiImmaker Beth B (Two Small Bodies), whose coIlaborations with Lunch span more than four decades, Lydia Lunch: The War is Never Over presents the artist’s electric body of work with archivaI footage, vintage photographs and interviews with Lunch and longtime coIlaborators. Actively performing to expose the patriarchy, sexuaI abuse, cycle of violence, and corporate greed, Lunch continues to tirelessIy bring her passionate artistry to the stage—and now to the screen.
