Film Screening: Tutankhamun

Tutankhamun: The Last Exhibition (2022)

Join us for a special screening of the documentary film Tutankhamun: The Last Exhibition.

Directed by Ernesto Pagano and narrated by rock star Iggy Pop, this documentary retraces the incredible story of the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb in 1922 and how 150 items from his treasures were moved to become part of the biggest international exhibition ever dedicated to the Boy King.

Opening in Los Angeles in 2019, this exhibition was to be the final global tour of items from Tutankhamun's tomb before they found their new permanent home in the new Great Egyptian Museum. Unfortunately, COVID-19 cut the international tour short – including its arrival in Sydney. 

This documentary allows you to get close to the Pharoah as we mark the centenary of the discovery of his tomb.
