It’s Never Over, Jeff Buckley
Because some voices echo forever.
Join us for an unforgettable closing night as the Brisbane International Film Festival celebrates 30 years of Jeff Buckley’s Grace, the album that redefined vulnerability, artistry, and soul.
Begin the evening with Amy Berg’s award-winning documentary It’s Never Over, an intimate portrait of Buckley’s brilliance and heartbreak. Then, as the screen fades to black, the music rises — a once-in-a-lifetime live performance of Grace, track by track, brought to life by a stellar lineup of Brisbane’s finest:
Jack Carty, Asha Jefferies, Jaguar Jonze, Moreton, Mark Moroney, Katie Noonan, Tyrone Noonan, Sue Ray, Jude York, and special guests yet to be announced.
Backed by an exceptional five-piece band, these artists will honour Buckley’s legacy with raw emotion, soaring vocals, and reverence for one of the most hauntingly beautiful albums ever made.
For die-hard fans, it’s a chance to relive the magic. For new listeners, it’s an awakening.
A single night, one voice, countless hearts, and the echoes of Grace under the stars.
It's Never Over: Jeff Buckley is a beautifully crafted deep dive into the soul of one of music’s most transcendent voices. This documentary unravels the brilliance, vulnerability, and restless spirit of Jeff Buckley, whose haunting vocals and timeless artistry left a permanent mark on pop culture before his life was tragically cut short. Through never-before-seen archival footage, interviews, and live performances, the film paints a portrait of a man chasing meaning through music, constantly on the edge of epiphany or mental torture. More than a biography, Jeff Buckley's creative copyright was finally trusted to be shared from the hands of his mother to director Amy Berg, who previously had her Janis Joplin documentary screened at the Venice Film Festival."Loving, spirited and honest."
