Synopsis: Scott Walker achieved a fame rivaling the Beatles and the Rolling Stones in Britain in the mid-60s and had the looks and the voice to be one of the biggest singing stars of all time, on par some believed, with Tony Bennet and Frank Sinatra. But instead of turning to Las Vegas for fame and fortune, Scott turned for inspiration to the films of Ingmar Bergman, the existentialist novels of Sartre and the tortured chanson of Jaques Brel and morphed into one of the most influential and enigmatic figures in rock history and is revered by critics, musicians, and a die-hard cult of fans as one of the most astonishing and important sound-makers of the last 30 years.Four years in the making, 'Scott Walker: 30 Century Man' is and in-depth look at a man who turned his back on fame to follow a very singular and uncompromising artistic path Ð something all too rare in today's accelerated pop culture. In addition to a rare interview with the reclusive Walker himself, the film features interviews with an impressive roster of his famous fans and collaborators (Bowie, Radiohead, Jarvis Cocker, and legendary arranger Angela Morley, formerly known as Wally Stott!) And the filmmakers were granted exclusive access to observe the recording of Walkers latest album 'The Drift' (one of the most critically acclaimed albums of 2007); sessions which featured giant wooden cubes, a percussive side of pork, a braying donkey, and an entire orchestra directed to sound like WWII bombers.
