Film description

In this new documentary about Negativland, the footage is almost entirely made by the people who are in it. Plunderphonics is the name given to the genre by the band that named itself after the song by CAN. Media attention rose after the band made an unauthorized cover of a U2 song. Over The Edge live radio broadcasts, and news footage, and occasional interviews from the era. The format follows the footage: a continuous loop of time backward and forward, sometimes repeating.
