The Complete Experience…
If you were there you're in it. If you weren't you'll wish you were once you've witnessed this remarkable DVD boxed set. Based around the critically acclaimed feature film shot at what is commonly regarded as the last of the great old school Glastonburys. At the time of filming, mindful of emerging multimedia technologies the makers didn't just set out to make your average feature film. They made sure they got everything.
Now, spanned across 3 full capacity discs they have finally finished what they set out to do 14 years ago. On disk 2 theres even a way of playing it so that it runs for 38 hours. They shot the lot; some of the best bands of the early 90s, entire gigs, interviews, backstage, but most importantly the comings and goings of all the people who make Glastonbury what it is. Its not just a music festival, It's a way of life. Why did Mike Leigh call the film a masterpiece? Because he got it. He realised that it had managed to capture a very real human experience on celluloid. Glastonbury The Movie was released in UK cinemas on summer Solstice 1996. It's since gone global showing in every continent, even Antarctica.
In a world where everybody has sold out, come and see what life was like in that bygone era before Oasis, before Blur, before on site cash point machines and mobile masts. Come and see the film that was too real to be accepted by the establishment. The film by festival fans, for festival fans.
