Dir Alex Ross Perry | USA | 2025 | 128 mins | Rated 15 | English
A prismatic, narrative, scripted, documentary, musical, metatextual hybrid, this is an examination of the iconic 90s indie band Pavement. The film intimately shows the band preparing for their sold-out 2022 reunion tour while simultaneously tracking the preparations for a musical based on their songs, a museum devoted to their history and a big-budget Hollywood biopic inspired by their saga as the most important band of a generation. It’s one not just for fans but for anyone interested in the impact of contemporary music on the wider culture of society.
Starring Stephen Malkmus, Scott Kanberg, Joe Keery

REVIEWS
“never snotty, richly inventive, and so smartly executed that reality blurs.” ★★★★★ Danny Leigh, Financial Times
“a love letter, a mischievous jape and a deconstructed rock documentary all at once, a brilliantly unclassifiable salute to the 1990s indie-rock legends…” ★★★★ Tara Brady, Irish Times
“Part spoof and part serious, the film is about mythmaking as much as it is about music. The result is delightfully destabilizing.” Alissa Wilkinson, New York Times
“It’s a reminder that the fourth (and fifth and sixth) wall can be smashed, that the rock doc can be reinvented.” Adam Solomons, IndieWire
