Films and Soundtracks
In 2002 Coleman starred in a Czech film by Petr Zelenka Rok ďábla (Year of the Devil). The film has become a multiple award-winning cult classic (Crystal Globe, Czech Lion). Switching to yet another artistic role, he has been co-directing a documentary-style music film called "The Death And Resurrection Show", named after a song on Killing Joke's 2003 album.
Coleman has contributed to several film soundtracks, such as Walt Disney’s Mulan (1998; with Vanessa-Mae on violin) and UK Channel 4 TV film Cinderella (released on 01/01/2000; music composed by Jaz and Youth). Individual songs appeared in soundtracks like: Weird Science (1985; "Eighties" by Killing Joke), Showgirls (1995; "Hollywood Babylon" by Killing Joke) or Year of the Devil (2002; "Pukaea" by Jaz Coleman and Hinewehi Mohi, "Universe B" and "Exorcism" by Killing Joke).

Famous quotes containing the word films:
“The cinema is not an art which films life: the cinema is something between art and life. Unlike painting and literature, the cinema both gives to life and takes from it, and I try to render this concept in my films. Literature and painting both exist as art from the very start; the cinema doesn’t.”
—Jean-Luc Godard (b. 1930)
