Other informations

The screening is directed by Jonathan Munby and features the renowned Sir Ian McKellen in the role of King Lear. Considered by many to be the greatest tragedy ever written, King Lear sees two ageing fathers – one a King, one his courtier – reject the children who truly love them. Their blindness unleashes a tornado of pitiless ambition and treachery, as family and state are plunged into a violent power struggle with bitter ends.
