TORONTO THEATRICAL PREMIERE!
The story of how two college students found solidarity in their weirdness, recruited likeminded misfits, and formed the legendary American punk band, Butthole Surfers. Toronto Premiere!
Through exhaustive interviews, archival footage, cutting-edge animation and graphics, surreal reenactments, and more, BUTTHOLE SURFERS: THE HOLE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUTT is a film in the anarchic spirit of the band. Irreverent and funny, but also sincere and heartfelt at times, the documentary invites the post-punk rock legends to look back on their strange and extraordinary lives. This isn't a hagiography; it's the hole truth and nothing butt, warts and all: sex, drugs, rock and roll, the beautiful, the ugly, and the weird. (CUFF)
“Amongst the great music docs of all time! Captures the anarchic spirit of this legendary band - hilarious, moving, and some of the most fun I’ve had in a theater in years. This should be seen far and wide.” - Richard Linklater
"Poignant, hilarious, and a true reflection of the mythical '80s Texas psych-punk band... easily the highest laugh count of any documentary I've experienced." - Jeff Feuerzeig, Director, The Devil and Daniel Johnston
