Films+Music=Opening Nights Conn-x

The section consisting of the best musical documentaries of the year lives up to the expectations once more. 'Music & Films' section sounds already interesting not only music wise but because of its cinematographical approach as well. This September the venues will be filled with beats coming from the following: ?Benda Bilili!?(In competition)- They were homeless and crippled, living in Kinshasa, Congo. Their love for their native rhumba, rhythm'n'blues and reggae enabled them to be known worldwide. A unique taste of soul's power and a fine example of rising above life's worst misfortunes. ?Strange Powers: Stephin Merritt And The Magnetic Fields? (In competition) - 89 minutes seem strangely enough to capture almost everything regarding the unable to be copied sound of The Magnetic Fields and its genius Stephin Merritt. ?Sex And Drugs And Rock'n'Roll?- Ian Dury and the Blockheads, polio and its effects, sex, love, drugs and rock'n' roll in a stylish biopic. You'll have many reasons to be cheerful after seeing this.
