Lifers

(2024, 82m) dir Scott Lucas. Featuring an intro by director / Local H front man Scott Lucas. Co-presented by Cloudland. The first movie from cult-rock heroes LOCAL H is finally here! 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 depicts a night out at a Local H concert as an energetic, funny, and borderline psychedelic cinematic experience. Not quite a documentary –and not just a concert film– Lifers blends those elements 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. $13
