This Is Spinal Tap takes DiBergi’s brilliant vérité style and turns it up to eleven! Screening in anticipation of Spinal Tap II: The End Continues.

Spinal Tap has come to be recognised as England’s loudest and most punctual band. In the legendary rockumentary This Is Spinal Tap, now beautifully 4K restored, Nigel Tufnel (Christopher Guest), David St. Hubbins (Michael McKean), and Derek Smalls (Harry Shearer) embark on their final American tour, with filmmaker Marty DiBergi (Rob Reiner) capturing all the mishaps, creative tensions, dwindling crowds, and ill-fated drummers.

More than just a comedy, This Is Spinal Tap offers a timeless, affectionate look at the highs and lows of fame, making it a must-see for music and comedy fans alike.
