Martin Phillipps has been called a lyrical genius, and his band, The Chills, remains one of New Zealand's most iconic groups. This intimate documentary bears witness as the eccentric Phillipps battles the jarring reality of his own mortality. With a startling sense of humor even in the darkest moments, Martin reconciles a lifetime's worth of curious collections, looks back on a catalogue of heavenly pop hits, and reclaims his place in the iconic Flying Nun and Dunedin Sound.
While you're here, check out our Chills display in the People of the World Gallery on Level 2.
