The underlying message was one of radical engagement as relevant today as ever. This film reveals the depth of the creative collaboration between John and Yoko and explores how the art, politics and music of the pair are intrinsically entwined. The album, and its iconic title track, shows the extraordinary genius behind the music that defined a movement and marked an era. ABOVE US ONLY SKY recounts a story of hope for a world still desperately in need of peace, justice, empathy and love.

Featuring interviews from Yoko Ono, Julian Lennon, David Bailey (photographer), John Dunbar (Gallerist who introduced the couple), Dan Richter (Yoko’s neighbor and John’s former personal assistant) and Eddie Veale (studio designer), some of whom have never spoken publicly on film before. As well as never seen before footage of Lennon and Ono from their private archive. Ultimately, ABOVE US ONLY SKY viscerally recreates the era’s mood and culture, in the process confirming not only how revolutionary and essential John & Yoko’s writings, commentaries and art were to their time—but how inspiring, essential, and relevant their message remains today.
