MOGWAI: IF THE STARS HAD A SOUND

Over 25 years and 10 studio albums, Mogwai have built a devoted following and defined their own musical genre that elegantly blends brute sonic force, cinematic expansiveness, with subtlety and grace. Antony Crook’s feature directorial debut captures the band as they record their most recent album, As the Love Continues; when the sessions are shut down due to COVID-19 and the ensuing lockdown, the band are forced to retreat to their hometown of Glasgow. Mogwai: If the Stars Had a Sound features extensive interviews with the band and their peers, including artist Douglas Gordon and writer Ian Rankin, alongside moving testimonials from fans and lovingly excavated archival footage from across Mogwai’s storied career.
