PODCAST | Angelo Acerbi interviews Brian Welsh, actress of the film Beats.
Brian Welsh, director of Beats, talks about his love for music and the larger significance of it for himself and therefore for the characters in his film. Music is freedom, techno music was (and it is not much anymore) a way to fight the system for less controlling and oppressive social rules. the same ones that, back in the 90’s, England was trying to impose by law. A powerful and energetic film, a call for youth and freedom of being.
