Synopsis

Directed by Edgar Wright, this documentary dives into the world of Sparks, an American pop band formed by brothers Ron and Russell Mael. Unique and eccentric, the duo is known for their elusiveness and refusal to be categorised. The documentary spans Sparks’ career while also retaining a sense of mystery around the pair and their off-beat humour. Equally about the band’s dedicated fan base, the film includes an array of interviews with famous admirers such as Flea and Beck. This amusing documentary celebrates art and can be used to begin a conversation about the music industry and the way it has changed over time.

What our educators say

"It really is a chance for us to open children's minds to the power of film not just as a vehicle for entertainment but also as a way in to understanding their own world and the worlds of people whose lives are very different."
