Special programme “Northern Laughter”

On Top

1 hr. 40 min. | Comedy, Musical | N/A

The main line of this adventurous film is the fight against pop music in rock music. Not everyone, but a group of girls are involved in this battle, so it goes without saying that their behavior and desire to conquer the hearts of as many fans as possible causes a lot of noise. The director of this film not only stays behind the camera, but also plays one of the roles himself. This film is still important to the director because even 24 years after its creation, he still mentions it. Films close to the artist are about music, so the new film he made in 2004 is about music: about a band that plans to recover twenty years after their separation.
