This is a Film about The Black Keys traces Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney's journey from a jamming session in a basement in Akron, Ohio to rock ’n’ roll superstardom. They barely knew each other when they made their first recordings, yet quickly realised they shared a powerful musical connection and a drive to succeed. Touring relentlessly for ten years, the duo navigated the highs and lows of life on the road, finally reaching escape velocity with their hit records Brothers and El Camino. Despite so many forces threatening to pull them apart, the band has managed to stick together, and 24 years later, they’re tighter than ever, still making
great music and still asking what’s next.
Dir. Jeff Dupre, US, 2024, 89 mins
