Roger Waters has released a 30-second trailer to his upcoming Us + Them concert film. The movie is directed by Waters and Sean Evans and features scenes from the concert tour juxtaposed with clips from war torn locales across the globe. Us + Them will run in theaters worldwide over two nights — October 2nd and 6th.
Rolling Stone posted a quote from Waters about the movie, saying, “I’m so looking forward to the launch of the movie in October. Us + Them is not standard rock & roll fare, some in the audience may ‘yee haaaa!!!’ Which is OK, but many will weep. That is what I hope for. Us + Them is a call to action. Homo Sapiens stand at a crossroads: We can either pool our love, develop our capacity to empathize with others, and act collectively for the good of our planet, or we can remain ‘Comfortably Numb,’ and continue, like blind lemmings, on our current omnicidal death march towards extinction. Us + Them is a vote for love and life.”
