About The Falconer
Chris Petit & Iain Sinclair's liminal, laminal tribute to underground filmmaker Peter Whitehead, featuring image manipulation by Dave Mckean & reminiscences from various countercultural characters. A fitting epitaph for an English margin walker.
Directed by Iain Sinclair, Chris Petit, The Falconer leans on a strong ensemble — Kathy Acker, Steven Dilworth, Stewart Home — 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 documentary titles of 1998.
