Synopsis

'Supersonic' is a documentary that follows the career of British group Oasis. Follow the footsteps of the Gallagher brothers from when they achieved fame in 1994 with the release of their album 'Definitely Maybe', to 1996, the year in which the band played two consecutive nights in Knebworth Park, where they performed for 250,000 fans and reaching the peak of their career.

'Supersonic' allows us to be up close and personal to the Oasis story, as well as the careers of Noel and Liam Gallagher and what their life on the road was like as they dedicated their work to the music world. The production team of the documentary 'Amy', about the life of singer Amy Winehouse, produced the documentary directed by Mat Whitecross ('Sex & Drugs &Rock & Roll', 'Moving to Mars').
