Plot

The documentary 'The Sparks Brothers', tells the life of Ron and Russell Mael known for leading the rock band Sparks. Edgar Wright is in charge of directing and scripting this film that shows how a music group can be successful and ignored at the same time. With 25 albums behind them, the Mael brothers have influenced artists as important and disparate as 10cc, Abba, Queen, Kate Bush, Blondie, Oingo Boingo, SebastiAn, The Cars, Devo or Björk. Directed by Edgar Wright ('Baby Driver', 'Welcome to the End of the World'), the film has been endorsed by renowned media and journalists such as The Hollywood Reporter: "Edgar Wright's debut documentary chronicles the decades-long career of the hugely influential cult band Sparks(...)maybe a bit too exhaustive for those merely seeking an introduction to the band, longtime fans will be thrilled by the deluxe treatment, , Brandon Towns: "Never I have seen a documentary as fun as Wright's "The Sparks Brothers," which is thrilling from beginning to end. While it may seem unusual for the director of 'Baby Driver' to make a doc, Wright?s love of music is really showcased here" o SlashFilm: "this portrait of Sparks is just as lighthearted and delightful as the music you'll be tapping your toe to throughout the entire movie".
