| 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. |
