Synopsis

In the summer of 2015, legendary musician David Byrne staged an event at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center to celebrate the art of Color Guard: synchronized dance routines involving flags, rifles, and sabers.

Our take

A marvel of flying rifles, whirling flags, and synchronized formations, the color guards merge with experimental pop musicians in David Byrne’s life-affirming show. The Ross Brothers also aim for the stars, unfurling the potential of the concert film to capture more than simply the live performance.
