From director Alex Ross Perry (Her Smell) comes a kaleidoscopic portrait of 90s rock band Pavement. Spanning documentary, jukebox musical, prestige biopic, and museum exhibition, Pavements is a funny and idiosyncratic tribute to a one-of-a-kind band and a one-of-a-kind inventive formal exercise exploring the music film genre. This special advance screening will be preceded by an introduction from Robert Greene, Producer and Editor of Pavements and followed by a Q&A with Greene and Pavements Director of Photographer Robert Kolodny.

"Perry’s film, one of his most accomplished and complete-feeling to date, exists in both a past and conditional tense. It gives a brilliant précis of one of indie music’s most influential artists."
–David Katz, The Film Stage
"In an age of musical biopic plenty, this semi-ironic, postmodern take — which runs through Perry's part drama, part documentary, and part mockumentary — may be just what the doctor ordered."
–Siddhant Adlakha, Mashable
"It captures the artistry, ingenuity and humor of its subject better than an encyclopedic history ever could – a music doc for whom success, in the spirit of Pavement, looks very different."
–Luke Hicks, Little White Lies
