BARKING IN THE DARK

Marie Losier (Dir), 42 minutes, France, Western New York Premiere

Marie Losier invites us into the mysterious and unclassifiable world of The Residents, emblematic figures of the American musical avant-garde for over 50 years. This cult collective, hidden behind its anonymity and iconic costumes, revolutionized the underground with its sonic experimentations and bold visual aesthetic. This playful and intimate portrait celebrates the extraordinary freedom of a group that never played by the rules.
