A short documentary film made during the 2018 edition of AFTER HOURS in Shanghai and Taipei.
The five independent rock bands asked French filmmaker (and longtime MONO collaborator) Julien Levy to tag along on an epic few days of music and travels. The film was made in a simple, radical way, in respect of After Hours festival values: “Standing Against Things That Ruin Art”.
Bands that performed at these two dates were: MONO, envy, toe, LITE and downy.
This year’s edition is as follows:
May 12 – Tokyo, Japan
LITE / OOIOO / Vampillia official / skillkills / NOTⅡBELIKESOMEONE / 5kai / Explosions in the Sky (US) / MONO (Japan) / envy Official / downy / toe / Boris / Killie / PALM / bacho / heaven in her arms / Aiming For Enrike (NOR) / Svalbarduk (UK) / The Redneck Manifesto (IRL)
