Ibiza: The Silent Movie
Synopsis
This unique and innovative project, financed by leading international entertainment production and finance company Silver Reel and BBC Music, based around a feature length documentary film will provide a compelling audiovisual journey into 2,000 years of Ibiza’s bohemian soul. The film will capture Temple’s iconic style and will feature music from and curated by renowned artist Fatboy Slim (RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW; PRAISE YOU; WEAPON OF CHOICE).
Temple says; “With the incredible 2,000 year history of this magical island as a subject and the genius of Norman Cook now on board to produce a soundtrack you can dance to, we believe this film will take event media to a whole new level”

You Really Got Me
Director: Julien Temple
Year: 2020
A dramatisation, interwoven with archive footage, of the lives of Ray and Dave Davies, the fabled North London brothers of the band The Kinks. <br /> Ray Davies, an audacious lead singer and songwriter and one of rock’s most iconic musicians, formed a partnership with his brother Dave, a hugely gifted guitarist, which was as legendary as that of Lennon and McCartney or Jagger and Richards. After their meteoric rise to fame, the young brothers were plunged into the hedonistic world of the 1960s rock explosion, and their volatile relationship became notorious. <br /> In the UK, The Kinks had 17 Top 20 singles (including You Really Got Me, Dedicated Follower of Fashion, Waterloo Sunset and Lola) and five Top 10 albums. The band were famously banned from the USA at the height of their fame, but have still sold an estimated 50 million albums worldwide. Their influence has gone on to shape three decades of rock.
