About The Tulse Luper Suitcases, Part 1: The Moab Story
A comic study of 20th-century history, reconstructing the life of writer, creator and professional prisoner Tulse Luper. Born in 1911 Newport and last heard of in 1989, Luper’s life is pieced together from the evidence found in 92 suitcases scattered across the globe. In the first of three parts, we follow Luper through three distinct episodes: as a child during the First World War; as an explorer in Mormon Utah; and as a writer in Belgium during the rise of fascism.
Directed by Peter Greenaway, The Tulse Luper Suitcases, Part 1: The Moab Story leans on a strong ensemble — JJ Feild, Raymond J. Barry, Ornella Muti — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about war titles of 2003.
