DON'T TURN YOUR BACK ON FRIDAY NIGHT (Documentary Trailer: Sound On Screen Music Film Festival 2023)

Book tickets at: qkt.io/BzPX24 - DON'T TURN YOUR BACK ON FRIDAY NIGHT From Executive Producer Tom Morello (Rage Against The Machine / Audioslave) - meet former gravedigger and doorman Ike Reilly. At 40 years old he landed a major label recording contract and in true rock & roll fashion he bought his family a dream home. He took his band out on the road where they became what The New York Times called “one of the best live bands in America.” Despite 9 albums, a cult following and immense critical acclaim Reilly has failed to achieve commercial success. Academy Award winning director James Marsh says, “Ike’s stuff sounds like it should be enormously successful and it just isn’t and I have no idea why.”
The opening short for this movie will be the Swiss short StratocastAir - the the story of a man, who dares to rock his passion... and thereby unleashes something unexpected - buying an air guitar!
SOUND ON SCREEN features over 50 Movies, Documentaries & Short Films - Streaming across South Africa via Quicket.co.za , 31 March - 9 April (tickets at qkt.io/BzPX24 , incl. full festival pass for only R175!).
