Documentary portraits, concert movies, and on-the-road chronicles of the oddball characters and famous names of alternative music.
The Fearless Freaks
An intimate portrait of the Flaming Lips' bizarre quarter-century of ridiculous rock'n'roll.
Meeting People is Easy
Grant Gee's soul-crushing chronicle of life on the promotional trail methodically tears down the myths of the bon-vivant touring band.
Scott Walker: 30 Century Man
Documentary chronicle of the life and work of the reclusive crooner both builds up and tears down the Walker mythology.
Christmas on Mars
The Flaming Lips' first-ever feature film is a low-budget oddity that has more to do with underground cinema than underground music.
Wild Combination: A Portrait of Arthur Russell
Matt Wolf's posthumous chronicle of the fallen disco cellist humanizes the elusive, genre-shifting 'genius' with an unexpected sweetness.
Dig!
A seven-year chronicle of the rise of The Dandy Warhols and the fall of The Brian Jonestown Massacre.
The Devil and Daniel Johnston
From home-made cassettes to trying to crash an air-born plane: the Devil made Daniel Johnston do it all.
End of the Century: The Story of the Ramones
Documentary chronicle of the life and times of America's pre-eminent punk-rockers.
Leonard Cohen: I'm Your Man
A film divided into three: one part study of Cohen, one part all-star variety concert, one part stuck-listening-to-Bono.
