Super-8 Stories

Directed by Emir Kusturica

A concert movie with a difference, this is a breathless and exhilarating behind-the-scenes look by Kusturica (UNDERGROUND) at his own band, ‘The No Smoking Orchestra’. Founded in Sarajevo 20 years ago, they immediately became a cult hit, playing a hard-to-classify-genre called ‘Balkan Punk’. With Kusturica’s trademark visual flair, super-8 images, shoot-from-the-hip camerawork, home movies and band interviews are cut together in a dizzying vortex.
