Love. Politics. A big movie. And some very loud drums. It's 1977 - a thriving year for plane hijackings, and a busy period for the terrorists of the Red Army Faction. The Sex Pistols and the The Clash have released their seminal albums, and with Franco gone, Spain's fascist regime has gasped its last breaths. The Vietnam War is over, although its effect on American culture and global politics is still evident. Volcano's latest show begins on the notoriously troubled set of Apocalypse Now. As Coppola, Sheen and the crew go mad in the jungle, the action transfers to a very different event on the other side of the world, where a conference is gathering that aims to take the temperature of a 'dying century'. The lives and stories of two young delegates unfold with shattering consequences against the twin backdrops of the conference rooms and Coppola's film.
