Rock icon Marianne Faithfull's six-decade journey through music, fame and reinvention unfolds in an intimate documentary. Broken English is a genre-defying act of resilience and rebellion – Marianne Faithfull’s final fearless declaration, her defiant swan song.
'Not just a documentary about Faithfull, it’s a film which is fully infused with her distinctive spirit – it is free, candid and rebellious to the core.'
