“Conversation with” at the 20th Marrakech IFF, interview with actor Willem Dafoe Bénédicte Prot
“Pavements”, interview with the director Alex Ross Perry
Alex Ross Perry, director, "Pavemnts". A fake and ironical celebration on screen of indie band Pavements that is surpassed by the actual success and impact it had after a reunion tour. Reality beats grotesque.
“Pavements“, Alex Ross Perry‘s film dedicated to the American 90s indie band Pavement, is not a documentary, just as it is not a biopic or a tribute. It is four films together, in a hyper-homage to a band that, paradoxically, got that same tributes invented in the film, also in reality.
The need for a film about the band but not the usual film
Alex Ross Perry for “Pavements” started from the fact that for all bands of a certain level and success there comes a time of celebration into a film: the market demands it, commercial logic demands it and the fans also demand it and expect it. For Pavement too, the time had come, but they didn’t want a classical structure, to stand in front of the camera and tell their story. So we invented a new format of musical storytelling.
Reality overcame our creativity
for “Pavements“Alex Ross Perry and the band had invented a parallel world where success was planetary, they were idolised and celebrate in biopics, museums and endless tours. When by 2022 all this started to happen for real, the grotesque part of the film was overtaken by reality: the band had become bigger and more famous than anyone could have imagined.

"Pavements", interview with the director Alex Ross Perry Angelo Acerbi
Plot
This examination of the iconic 1990s indie band Pavement has all the air of the usual music documentary. Until it ceases to be. A prismatic hybrid of narrative, scripted, documentary, musical and meta-textual forms, the film is an intimate look at the band as they prepare for their sold-out 2022 reunion tour, while in the meantime following rehearsals for a musical based on their songs, a museum dedicated to their history and a high-budget Hollywood biopic inspired by their saga as the iconic band of a generation.
