All Musicians Are Bastards

About This Movie

All Musicians Are Bastards really nails that gritty, behind-the-scenes vibe of a struggling artist. Leila, played by Riina Maidre, embodies that dichotomy - a dreamer trapped in a harsh reality. The pacing, while slow at times, matches the intensity of her life as she battles with toxic relationships and the world of substance use. There's a rawness to her journey that feels very real, almost voyeuristic in a way. The film doesn't shy away from showing the darker aspects of the music scene, which adds a layer of authenticity. The performances are quite striking, especially Maidre's, which anchors the film in its emotional core. It’s a unique exploration of the cost of ambition in the creative realm.
