The Angelic Conversation is a 1985 arthouse drama film directed by Derek Jarman.
Its tone is set by the juxtaposition of slow-moving photographic images and Shakespeare's sonnets read by Judi Dench.
The film consists primarily of homoerotic images and opaque landscapes through which two men take a journey into their desires.
In 2008, Peter Christopherson of Coil (with David Tibet, Othon Mataragas and Ernesto Tomasini) performed a new live soundtrack to the movie during a special screening at the Turin Lesbian and Gay Film Festival.
The film's music track also includes Benjamin Britten's "Sea Interludes" from Peter Grimes, performed by The Chorus and Orchestra of The Royal Opera House Covent Garden, conducted by Colin Davis.
