Shut Up and Play the Piano
2018・Germany・France・United Kingdom・82 minutes
"I'm worried that if my fans only love me, they should also hate me!" He is the arrogant and self-deprecating music prodigy Shiri Gonzalez. He once set the Guinness World Record for "the longest time playing for 27 hours in a single performance", compared art to "masturbating", and rushed into the audience to do body surfing while playing with the symphony orchestra! His musical career has ranged from underground avant-garde rap to boldly covering the possibilities of piano playing. Not only pursuing innovative music styles, but also breaking tradition and being crazy and uninhibited in performance. The director interweaves Gonzalez's life, recordings, and performance clips with personal interviews to record his legendary life that shuttled between art and entertainment.
