The invisible thread connecting a group of young friends from Ilion and their rock album with Jay Z, Rihanna and Kanye West, unfolds in the music documentary ‘The 4 Levels of Existence’ (The Greek Film Critics Association Award at the 21st Documentary Film Festival of Thessaloniki). Thanassis, Christos and Nikos, the remaining members of the legendary group ‘The 4 Levels of Existence’ get some time away from the obligations of their adult life and meet to rock out again.
A film about ‘rock ‘n’ roll vindication’, teenage dreams coming true, friendships, nostalgia for things past, and impatience for those about to come but also a film that works as a reminder: the road to Grammys sometimes goes through DIY underground rehearsal studios of West Attica!
