Eileen Yaghoobian travels through North American to speak to the men and women who through gig posters have created their own visual language on the outskirts of society for bands who would become the Melvins, Broken Social Scene, Marilyn Manson, Sonic Youth, Queens of the Stone Age and Bob Dylan. In a film that is raw and as curious as the posters and their artists, DIED YOUNG, STAYED PRETTY asks whether making a poster can have a difference and whether counter culture still has any power. The artists explain their worka nd vent their theories on culture and life, whilst celebrating the music and musicians that they love in a defiant and darkly funny film. |
