Blood Into Wine
Workplay
Birmingham, AL
BLOOD INTO WINE is the hit documentary that shares the story of Tool/A Perfect Circle/Puscifer front man Maynard James Keenan and his mentor Eric Glomski as they pioneer winemaking in the hostile deserts of Arizona. The film premieres in theaters across the country on Friday, February 19th.
Maynard's various musical entities have sold over 30 million records worldwide. His band's have headlined the world's most prominent music festivals including Coachella, Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo and Roskilde while the man himself has reveled in revealing little of his personal life.
On stage Maynard dresses in costume and stands in the shadows as an affront to typical rock star theatrics. He even bolted from Los Angeles just as his band began to pay off, leaving behind a potentially lavish lifestyle for the craggy rocks of Northern Arizona, settling into an area of 300 residents and a rumored ghost town.
BLOOD INTO WINE gives unprecedented insight into Maynard's world and his motivations for taking on the arduous task of bringing winemaking to the region's unforgiving landscape and how winemaking fits into his creative trajectory.
The film is Co-Directed by Ryan Page and Christopher Pomerenke (the filmmakers behind critically acclaimed documentaries Moog and The Heart Is A Drum Machine).
Maynard boldly allowed Page and Pomerenke to openly challenge him as a "celebrity winemaker" and BLOOD INTO WINE is the result.
