Live solo acoustic performances by Sam Beam after the 6:30pm show & at 9:00pm (movie will begin at 9.30)!
Who Can See Forever is the first ever in-depth look into the life and music of Iron & Wine's Sam Beam. Initally conceived as a live document, Who Can See Forever grew into a deeper study of its enigmatc subject as director Josh Sliffe spent more and more time on the road. Shot over the course of three years and using the traditonal concert film as his jumping-off point, Sliffe digs into the myth and ethos of Iron & Wine through a series of interviews and unguarded behind-the-scenes footage that welcome the viewer into the center of Beam's universe.
The film broke ground during a partcularly creatve period wherein Iron & Wine released back-to-back Grammy nominated records and were in the midst of a three-year touring cycle. The concert film is drawn from a two night-stand at the historic Haw River Ballroom in Saxapahaw, North Carolina and features bassist Sebastan Steinberg (Fiona Apple, Soul Coughing), drummer Elizabeth Goodfellow (Allison Russell, Be8er Oblivion Community Center), cellist Teddy Rankin- Parker and keyboardist Eliza Hardy-Jones (War on Drugs, Grace Po8er). The shows were performed in-the-round for a once in a lifetme experience and the live performances pull from the entirety of Iron & Wine's 20 plus year career.
Who Can See Forever manages to serve as part concert film, part music documentary and part meditatve examinaton as it captures one of independent music's most prolific singer-songwriters.
