Werewolves Across America

U.S. Premiere – Directors James Hall & Edward Lovelace will be present.
“I’m kind of useless in the real world”. These are the words of the down-and-out guitarist Viking Moses, who is the fascinating and indomitable focal point of this beautiful portrayal of America’s musical backyard. The title’s werewolves are a part of America’s hopeless but hopeful youth, who can’t come to terms with the straight path to career hell. They have gathered in bands such as Phosphorescent, Deer Tick, The Shivers and Real Live Tigers. Wry existences that have all bid farewell to the American dream in order to dress in self-sewn, musical wolf costumes, which don’t bring than any further than the next half-empty concert venue. A brilliant film about “Do It Yourself” as a life form filled with tragicomic scenes, beautiful Super8 images from suburban America, and set against 24 carat soundtrack of golden freak folk. – Synopsis provided by Copenhagen International Documentary Film Festival.
