Mistaken For Strangers

Hailed by Michael Moore as “one of the best documentaries about a band that I’ve ever seen” and by Pitchfork as “the funniest, most meta music movie since SPINAL TAP,” MISTAKEN FOR STRANGERS is a truly hilarious and touching film about two brothers, Matt and Tom Berninger. Matt, the lead singer of the critically acclaimed rock band The National, finally finds himself flush with success. His younger brother Tom is a loveable slacker – a filmmaker and metal-head still living with his parents in Cincinnati. On the eve of The National’s biggest tour to date, Matt invites Tom to work for the band as a roadie, unaware of Tom’s plan to film the entire adventure. What starts as a rock documentary quickly becomes a crowd-pleasing journey about family, ambition, and the creative process.

The film will make its theatrical premiere on March 25, 2014 at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles.  The gala event wouldn’t be complete without a performance from The National, so they will be on hand to celebrate with a full concert. Tickets to the March 25 Shrine Auditorium show are available here: http://www.ticketmaster.com/event/09004B900CD19E75

Mistaken for Strangers will be available in select theaters, on demand and on iTunes March 28.
