Cinema Year Zero is excited to announce Volume 20: Ken Russell’s History of the World, a 7-essay retrospective of the untamable British director.

On 23rd July, join us at The Cinema Museum for a rare screening of Crimes of Passion on 16mm, where print copies of the issue will be exclusively available. Tickets are now on sale here.

The event is presented in collaboration with film club and contributor Siren Screen, who have chosen a feature and short film both exploring the Madonna-Whore myth and the surreal world of bedroom fantasies.

But first, please enjoy the issue intro, penned by Cinema Year Zero Associate Editor, Kirsty Asher.
