Anarchy PR, Luna Palace Cinemas & Madman Entertainment presents the first film about the grande dame of punk and enfant terrible of British fashion, Vivienne Westwood – WESTWOOD: PUNK, ICON, ACTIVIST

Luna Cinemas Leederville will host an advance preview on Wednesday 17 October,  6.15pm arrivals for 7pm film start.

Guests will be welcomed by a DJ in-cinema serving up the hits, complimentary boozy donuts from our friends at MOP Donuts Leederville to stuff into your faces plus a bar in-cinema serving up trashy vs highbrow drinks (think: Emu Export vs Westwood-inspired cocktails), at Happy Hour prices!

Dame Vivienne Westwood is Punk Rock’s Grande Dame. One-time agent provocateur, the doyenne of British fashion, an eco-conscious Boudicca and one of the most influential originators in recent history.

The film explores her uphill struggle to success, looking closely at her artistry, her activism and her cultural significance. Blending iconic archive and newly shot observational footage, this era defining, intimate origins story will be told in Vivienne’s own words, and through touching interviews with her inner circle of family, friends and collaborators.

WESTWOOD: PUNK, ICON, ACTIVIST is the first film to encompass the remarkable story of one of the true icons of our time, as she fights to maintain her brand’s integrity, her principles – and her legacy.
WESTWOOD is in cinemas October 18.
