MusiXine provides a chance to
see the most intriguing music films on a big screen one last time today
and tomorrow. The weekend is filled with flicks from both the Official
Selection and the Special Screenings: for example, if you missed the
infamous bad boy of rock n' roll on Tuesday's Doc Lounge, you can still
dive into Lemmy's wicked world on Saturday. Other screenings present
among others Jack and Meg from the White Stripes and musicians fighting
against the society in films such as Beats of Freedom and Tom Ze
Astronauta Libertado. If boy bands and handsome males are more to your
liking, take a closer look at Blur documentary No Distance Left to Run
or Look Back, Don't Stare, depicting the friendship of the members of
Take That.
Besides the screened sweets, MusiXine brings you a special guest
straight from Hollywood on Saturday: in MusiXine FocusOn seminar the
audience gets tips from a legendary sound re-recording mixer Tom
Fleischman. With over 30 years' experience in mixing sound for the top
film-makers of the day, Fleischman is a first-call re-recording mixer
for such A-list directors as Martin Scorsese, Spike Lee and Ron Howard.
The MusiXine FocusOn is organized in cooperation with FilmArc and North
Finland Film Commission.
The festival ends with ceremonial activities: MusiXine Award Jollity
hands out the Main Award for the winning film. The grand prize of 2500
euros is donated by the non-profit organization Oulu Music Video
Festival. The victorious work will be screened at restaurant 45 Special
on Saturday 19 March starting at 8 p.m.
