PAVEMENTS

Watch Trailer Director: Alex Ross Perry
Cast: Stephen Malkmus, Bob Nastanovich, Scott Kannberg, Mark Ibold, Steve West, Joe Keery, Jason Schwartzman, Tim Heidecker, Michael Esper

Blending spoof-y satire and earnest documentary filmmaking, Alex Ross Perry takes us into the world of one of the most revered indie rock bands of all time…Pavement! By combining threads from Slanted! Enchanted! A Pavement Musical — a “jukebox musical” featuring songs from the band’s discography that tells the story of a young musician who travels to New York and falls in-and-out of love — with documentary footage of band members Stephen Malkmus, Bob Nastanovich, Scott Kannberg, Steve West, and Mark Ibold, Pavements is a music biopic unlike anything you’ve ever seen…the perfect tribute to a band whose music broke new ground when they hit the scene in the 90’s and reshaped alternative rock as we know it.

In addition to the band members, this unique and experimental film also stars, among others, Jason Schwartzman, Tim Heidecker, Joe Keery (Stranger Things), Michael Esper, and Sonic Youth’s Kim Gordon.

Though Pavement is the star and the performers in its orbit are all in supporting roles, “Pavements” is distinguished by cinematic artistry that’s as distinctive as it is personal. “Range Life” may be a Pavement story, but “Pavements” is a Perry film.
