Miguel Mendez / Foot Village Live 2003

About This Movie

So, this short doc captures this raw energy of Foot Village and Miguel Mendez's guerrilla performance in Pomona back in '03. The atmosphere is gritty and intense, almost like you're there in the crowd, feeling the vibrations of the drums and the sheer urgency of the moment. It's not polished, and that’s kind of the charm—there’s an immediacy that echoes the DIY spirit of the time. The pacing is almost frenetic, pulling you into the whirlwind of performance art and music, blurring the lines between chaos and creativity. It's a snapshot of a fleeting moment that feels significant in its own niche, a testament to underground artistry that you don't see much anymore.

This documentary has a unique position in the collector's market due to its limited release and the obscurity of both the performance and the artists involved. There are few copies floating around, and many collectors appreciate the rawness it captures, which stands out from more polished works. The film's scarcity and the ephemeral nature of guerrilla performances make it an interesting piece for those who delve into underground and experimental cinema.
