About this event

Decibels Film Festival presents:

WE ARE FUGAZI FROM WASHINGTON, D.C. is a collection of crowd-sourced, fan-recorded live shows, and rare archival footage that pays tribute to Fugazi’s prowess as a live act—for old fans to remember and for a new generation to discover what they missed. From the director of HEAVY METAL PARKING LOT, this film celebrates the fans and their cameras, as much as the band itself—a collision/collusion of the ephemeral moment on stage and the moments captured on camera.

Explicitly billed as a nondocumentary (tHISiSNOTaFUGAZIdOCUMENTARY,) the film pays tribute to Fugazi’s prowess as a live act — for old fans to remember and for a new generation to discover what they missed. This unique archival assemblage celebrates the fans and their cameras, as much as the band itself — a collision/ collusion of the ephemeral moment on stage, and the moments captured on camera.

“We Are Fugazi From Washington D.C. shows how thoroughly good they were. Out of step with the worldly, Fugazi won hearts and minds and then tidied up after themselves.” — Mojo
