SYNOPSIS

(English)


On June the 11th (Wednesday), BADLANDS will host a screening of three short films at Passos Manuel, showcasing some of the headliners of Primavera Sound Porto 2025.

The documentary Minor/Major is a portrait of the band TV on the Radio as they transition from indie darlings to a major label success. We watch as they struggle to come to terms with the business side of the music business while trying to maintain artistic integrity.

In Alone Together, discover the process behind Charli XCX’s 2020 quarantine album “how i’m feeling now”, created in 40 days during the COVID-19 pandemic, including its semi-collaborative nature with her community of online fans.

Sold For Parts chronicles Fontaines DC’s journey as they write, record and release their award-winning debut album. It is a revealing and honest look at a group willing to open up the deepest parts of their process as musicians, and themselves as young men.
