What does it feel like to have half a million people in the palm of your hand?
A film by Aidan Prewett
Haunted by uncanny similarities between Nazi stage techniques and the showmanship employed by modern entertainers, a filmmaker investigates the dangers of audience manipulation and leader worship.
Features interviews with and insights from Ian Anderson (Jethro Tull), Dick Cavette, Country Joe McDonald, Michael Shrieve (Santana), Chip Monck (head of tour production for The Rolling Stones), D.A. Pennebaker (film director/editor), Dale Bell (Associate producer “Woodstock”) and many more.
“I found myself catching on to some of his shrewd tactics midway through the film and spent the rest of it in awe of his filmmaking.” – Fakeshemp
