The White Stripes: Under Great White Northen Lights

15

(US 2009) dir. Emmett Malloy 93m. Digital.
Jack White, Meg White.

Legendary American duo the White Stripes took to the road in 2007 for a tour that was as eccentric as the musicians themselves. As well as traditional venues, the band played in buses, cafes, bowling alleys and boats – even staging a performance for Indian tribal elders. Music video director Emmett Malloy spectacularly captures these extraordinary concerts, as well as the intriguing relationship between the extroverted Jack and introspective Meg White. A beautifully intriguing portrait of one of America's most enigmatic bands.
