1972, New York. In John Lennon and Yoko Ono’s apartment, the TV is permanently on, acting as a ‘window to the world’.
Through their television this inventive documentary explores the America of that time, the Lennons’ evolving politics and their complex personal life as they search for Yoko’s estranged daughter Kyoko against the backdrop of the Nixon-McGovern election. Featuring previously unheard phone recordings and music from John’s only post-Beatles concert, it reveals the world that John and Yoko inhabited and the couple’s relevance, which still stands today
The film will be introduced by the University of Liverpool’s Dr Michael Jones.
Ahead of this film screening, enjoy an organ introduction from resident organist Dave Nicholas, who performs as their unique Walturdaw cinema screen rises from the stage.
