Described by The Independent as “the funniest cult comedy of 2026’ and a film that can never be made again, Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie follows Matt and Jay, two slackers from Toronto who are desperate to book their band a show at the venue, The Rivoli. Their plans are thrown completely off, however, when they accidentally time travel back to 2008, and an unexpected rift develops between the two.
Directed by Matt Johnson, whose previous film chronicling the life and death of the Blackberry mobile brought another Canadian tale to screen, with brilliant success.
A riotous mélange of guerrilla-style filmmaking and inspiring DIY cinema, this is a film that has to be seen in cinemas to be believed!
