| Description |
(Alexandra Lipsitz, USA, 2006, 81 min.)
The instruments may be invisible, but the rock is for real. No longer a mere bedroom pastime, air guitar has become a global phenomenon. Oulu, Finland, has hosted the Air Guitar World Championship for years, but remarkably, the United States was never representeduntil now. Growing for decades, our nations hunger for rocking gnarly air solos finally exploded onto the stage at the inaugural US tournament held above a New York strip club. This new, high-energy documentary chronicles the year that air guitar swept America, following rock-god hopefuls from that electric initial event to the West Coast tournament in LA, and finally to the world competition, where things get a little f*cking serious! AIR GUITAR NATION delves into the passions and obsessions that drive average people to adopt outlandish personae, summon the demons of shred and take to the stage with nothing but air. |
