Sleigh

About This Movie

So, here’s the deal with 'Sleigh' from 2017. It’s this quirky little film about a washed-up rock band, THE KINDNESS, trying to nail down a Christmas song in the sweltering heat of summer. The tension is palpable, especially with the lead singer Rob and his father, who’s a Bishop—imagine the dynamic. There’s a real mix of humor and frustration, and the whole vibe is a bit off-kilter, which I find refreshing. The performances, particularly from the main duo, have this raw energy that keeps you engaged, like watching a slow-motion train wreck. The atmosphere is thick with that awkward familial tension, and the way they handle the absurdity of recording a holiday tune in July is just... well, it's something else.

This film has a bit of a niche appeal, mainly because of its unconventional premise and the scarcity of physical releases. I've seen a few copies pop up on torrent sites, but physical formats are less common, making it a bit elusive for collectors. The blend of comedy and the behind-the-scenes look at a band’s struggle might not capture widespread attention, but for those who appreciate offbeat musical narratives, it's definitely interesting.
