How do we remember cultural icons? This is the question posed by the fictional government department known as The Ministry of Not Forgetting. Two of its officials decide that much needs correcting in the mythology surrounding the life of true British stage icon Marianne Faithfull. Blending documentary and fiction, the ministry sets out to redirect attention to the singer’s extraordinary talent, long overshadowed by scandals and the label of “muse.” The film traces an artist’s life shaped by fame, creativity, and the relentless scrutiny of the public eye.
