Sound It Out
During the past five years, the United Kingdom has experienced the closure of an independent record store every three days. SOUND IT OUT is a documentary that paints a portrayal of the very last vinyl record shop that is still open 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 in one of the most impoverished districts in the United Kingdom. Jeanie Finlay, who grew up about five kilometers away from the store, was the one who directed this movie. A singular, hilarious, and personal film about men, the North, and the indispensable function that music plays in all of our lives. It's like High Fidelity but with a regional drawl.
