Gimme Some Truth Music Documentary Film Festival
A music documentary film festival in WA, curated by radio station RTRFM.. A film festival solely dedicated to music documentaries is a pretty great idea, made even better when it’s spearheaded by a local independent radio station with impeccable taste in music. Gimme Some Truth - RTRFM's music documentary festival – returns for its sophomore year, showcasing eight films over six days, including two world premieres (score!). The film opening proceedings is Heaven Adores You - a documentary about the late singer Elliot Smith. Directed by a high school mate of Smith’s, Nickolas Rossi (from a Kickstarter project), it’s said to be the first project that’s been allowed to use Smith's music. Closing night is Finding Fela, a film about the father of Afrobeat, Fela Kuti, that’s been doing the rounds of the global indie festival circuit to strong acclaim. There’s a tour documentary, Come Worry With Us!, which goes on the road with Canadian post-rock trio Thee Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra.
