Everything Will Change
Self
Everything Will Change is a feature-length documentary concert film of The Postal Service’s performance at the Greek Theater in Berkeley, CA during their 2013 reunion tour. A collaboration between Benjamin Gibbard (of Death Cab for Cutie) and Jimmy Tamborello (from Dntel), with Rilo Kiley’s Jenny Lewis, The Postal Service released Give Up, their one and only album, in 2003. That record went on to sell over a million copies and most of the band’s fans never had the chance to see them perform live. In celebration of the 10-year anniversary of Give Up, the band reunited to tour the world. With intimate interviews and backstage footage of the band, Everything Will Change captures one of the nights when everything did change.

Kurt Cobain: Sobre un Hijo
Music
Luego de su supuesto suicidio, la figura de Kurt Cobain como nuevo mártir rockero dio paso a múltiples especulaciones y puntos de vista alrededor de la propia industria musical y, por supuesto, de su vida personal. Las conjeturas y los diferentes acercamientos comienzan de a poco a plasmarse en propuestas cinematográficas, algunas más felices que otras. Y si bien el abanico de ofertas puede ser diverso, ninguno podría igualar el motor que lleva adelante esta película: la voz del propio Cobain. Utilizando parte de más de veinticinco horas de entrevistas con material inédito, el líder de Nirvana se convierte en narrador excluyente de un documental intimista que va desglosando de manera pausada su propia historia: su infancia, sus primeros pasos en la música, su primer concierto, el encontronazo con la fama, sus últimos días. Un detalle: la música hipnótica de Steve Fisk (productor de Blew, primer Ep de Nirvana) y Ben Gibbard (Death Cab For Cutie).
