ONE MAN IN THE BAND
A film by Adam Clitheroe, UK, 2008, 83 min.
Origiinal version with Portuguese subtitles.
This film is the personal story of artists who walk around with their vibrant and very experimental productions. But notice: they are alone. They are more than solitary performers: the one man in the band brings to the stage the noise and vibrant spectacle of a whole band. This documentary looks at this phenomenon in parts of Europe and the USA. The director – also a solitary artist – does not mock the musical excesses, and takes a close look at the characters. A question remains in the air: what makes a person create a one man band?
