'Pavements' to premiere at Venice Film Festival - starring Joe Keery.

During the iconic 90s band's downtime they assembled a jukebox musical ‘Slanted! Enchanted!’ based on their own songs and also embarked on a reunion tour in 2022 after a 12 year hiatus. This journey was captured by filmmaker Alex Ross Perry for his forthcoming film 'Pavements' - premiering at Venice Film Festival.

The cast includes Joe Keery, Jason Schwartzman, Tim Heidecker, Zoe Lister-Jones, Michael Esper, Nat Wolff, Fred Hechinger, Logan Miller, Griffin Newman, and Kathryn Gallagher - alongside Pavement members; Stephen Malkmus, Spiral Stairs, Mark Ibold, Steve West, and Bob Nastanovich.

“Pavements, a prismatic, narrative, scripted, documentary, musical, metatextual hybrid, is an examination of the iconic 90s indie band Pavement. The film intimately shows the band preparing for their sold-out 2022 reunion tour while simultaneously tracking the preparations for a musical based on their songs, a museum devoted to their history and a big-budget Hollywood biopic inspired by their saga as the most important band of a generation.”
