Public Enemy: Welcome to the Terrordome
premiere

This terrific new documentary goes on tour and backstage with Public Enemy, combining live concert footage with new interviews from musical contemporaries including the Beastie Boys, Tom Morello (of Rage Against the Machine), Henry Rollins and Run-DMC.

The film also revealingly probes the dynamics within the group through a series of interviews and off-the-cuff backstage repartee between Chuck D, Flavor Flav, Professor Griff and the group's self-styled security detail, the S1W.

Spike Lee turns up to introduce the band in a live performance of Fight the Power, the call-to-political-consciousness hip hop classic that became the unofficial anthem for Lee's break-out 1989 film, Do the Right Thing (screening in our Focus on Spike Lee this December).
