SHANE

A perfect combination: Julien Temple (THE GREAT ROCK 'N' ROLL SWINDLE), the Punk generation's cinematic chronicler, takes on Shane MacGowan in his latest documentary masterpiece, the former frontman of the Pogues, a band that blended punk and Irish Folk like no other. MacGowan, by now marked by decades of heavy abuse of drugs and alcohol, still has plenty of humour and charisma shining through. Temple combines interviews, seldom seen archival material and animation to an energetic chronicle of a unique life.
