About This Movie

It's Not Repetition, It's Discipline dives deep into the enigmatic world of Mark E Smith and The Fall. This documentary, crafted over 13 years by devoted Danish fans, feels like stepping into a time capsule. The pacing is a bit uneven, which adds to its authenticity—like a raw rehearsal tape rather than a polished product. You get snippets of their chaotic performances, the band's often tumultuous dynamics, and Mark's unique philosophy on music and discipline. The atmosphere is both intimate and chaotic, almost like being in a smoky club as the band lays down their sound. It’s a fascinating portrait that captures the spirit of a band that thrived on contradiction and constant evolution.
