Sound It Out
In the United Kingdom, an independent record store has been shuttering once every three days on average during the past five years. SOUND IT OUT is a documentary that paints a portrayal of the very last vinyl record shop that is still operating in Teesside, in the North East of England. SOUND IT OUT is a documentary that documents a place that is thriving despite the odds and the local community that keeps it alive. This place is a cultural sanctuary located in one of the most impoverished districts in the UK. Jeanie Finlay, who grew up just five kilometers away from the store, served as the film's director. A singular, hilarious, and personal film about men, the North, and the crucial importance that music plays in each of our lives. It's like High Fidelity with a regional drawl.
