Cast: Local H, Radkey, Gabe Rodriguez
A night out at a concert by cult-rock band Local H is presented as an energetic, discursive, and borderline psychedelic movie experience. Written, directed and edited by the band’s singer/guitarist Scott Lucas (and shot in real time during a blistering performance at venerable Chicago music venue the Metro), LIFERS is not quite a documentary — and not quite a concert film– but those elements are blended with a fractured narrative to create something that’s like a cross between Led Zeppelin’s “The Song Remains The Same” and Richard Linklater’s “Slacker”.
