From real-life friends Annie Clark (a.k.a. GRAMMY award-winning recording and touring artist St. Vincent) and Carrie Brownstein (Portlandia, Sleater-Kinney) comes the metafictional account of two creative forces banding together to make a documentary about St. Vincent’s music, touring life, and on-stage persona. But they quickly discover unpredictable forces lurking within subject and filmmaker that threaten to derail the friendship, the project, and the duo’s creative lives.

I really like the look of this. A mix of David Lynch, Spinal Tap, Portlandia and David Byrne’s True Stories.

Directed by Bill Benz, the film stars St. Vincent, Carrie Brownstein with Dakota Johnson.

The Nowhere Inn opens in US cinemas and on VOD on 17th September 2021.
