"An inspirational fable for our times." Utopia has revealed a new teaser trailer for a restored re-release of a rock doc from 2008 titled Anvil! The Story of Anvil. Some of you may remember this – it first premiered at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival and it was a huge hit during Sundance. But it took a while for any distributor to buy it and release it - only later in 2009 did it open (we wrote about it!). "If you'd told me all those years ago at Sundance, when we had no buyers, that this movie would be released into theatres for the second time 13 years later I never would have believed you, but here we are. It truly is a miracle," says the director. Since 1978, the Canadian heavy metal band Anvil has become one of rock's most influential yet commercially unsuccessful acts. Back in 2006, after a fledging European tour, Anvil sets out to record their thirteenth album and continue to follow their dreams. And filmmaker Sacha Gervasi was there to capture it all. "As well as being a brilliant filmmaker, Sacha was in the right place at the right time and has managed to bring audiences a truly inspiring film which has stood the test of time." Time to revisit and enjoy this again. ›››
