Queen: We Are the Champions – The Story of the Greatest Sports Anthem of All Time

2024

We Are the Champions isn’t just a Queen track, it’s the sound of victory itself. This documentary traces how Freddie Mercury’s vision of a communal anthem leapt from News of the World into stadiums across the globe, becoming the ultimate soundtrack to triumph. With Brian May and Roger Taylor reflecting on its creation, and with decades of archive footage showing fans, athletes, and nations singing as one, the film makes a case for why this towering arena ballad still rules the winners’ podium.

Elszállt egy hajó a szélben

1998

Legends circulate in the public consciousness about Kex, which existed from late 1968 to the autumn of 1971. For baby boomers, it represented freedom and spontaneity. The band rejected the world of Communist cultural policy with its uniqueness and refusal to conform, something in which the best of the artistic intelligentsia and political dissidents saw value. They attended their concerts, and the film recalls their experiences. At times, one feels as if they are watching a spy film parody, as one gains insight into the secret files containing reports from agents embedded within the audience.

Feast Your Ears: The Story of WHFS 102.3 FM

2023

Built out of “a pile of radio junk,” Bethesda, Maryland’s WHFS was a music fan’s dream of a radio station: the place on the dial to hear music listeners loved and new tunes they soon would, all with an anything-goes mentality and an ear for the sounds of social change. This doc pays loving tribute to free-form radio and WHFS’s influence over FM stations across the US from the 1960s to the 1980s. All good things come to an end, and so did the disc-jockey-driven format that WHFS pioneered and made successful, but its legacy lives on. The station’s DJs relate its history with passion in this film that captures the tenor of an era, abetted by reminiscences of performers including Emmylou Harris, Taj Mahal, Jesse Colin Young, and others whose music found its way to ears and minds eager for something more than the same old Top 40 programming.
