We Are Fugazi From Washington D.C.
Curators Joe Gross, Jeff Krulik, Joseph Pattisall, US, 2022, 96 mins.
Doc'n Roll Films Presents: A Charity-Supported Screening Series
Created to commemorate the 20 years that have passed since DC-based post-hardcore band Fugazi’s last live appearance (4th November 2002, at London’s Forum), We Are Fugazi from Washington, D.C. is a 96-minute movie comprising crowd-sourced, fan-recorded live shows and rare archive footage of Fugazi curated by Joe Gross, Joseph Pattisall and Jeff Krulik.
Explicitly billed as a non-documentary, 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.
Filmmakers’ profits from these screenings will be donated by Doc'n Roll to Trevi House, a nationally award-winning women's and children's charity based in South West England, providing safe and nurturing spaces for women in recovery.
★★★★ CRACK – “Rough around the edges and stitched together with love, We Are Fugazi is an unashamedly DIY project that beautifully and potently captures what an absolutely f**king ferocious and totally singular group Fugazi were.”
Suggested age rating 15.
