Filmed with 20 cameras at a headline show at Japan's very own Glastonbury - Fujirock Festival - Don't Think is the first time the full Chemical Brothers’ live experience has been captured on film.
Directed by long-term visuals collaborator Adam Smith this full-length concert movie places cameras in the centre of the stage as well as at the very heart of the crowd to perfectly capture a fan's eye view of the heightened emotional reactions of the audience seeing the band at their very best.
During the film, Smith takes advantage of one of the most unique festival settings in the world when he follows selected audience members away from the stage and out into the natural environment. Then, by adding avant-garde magic realist moments where trippy visuals leave the screens and invade the open spaces of the festival,
Don't Think undergoes a transformation from concert film to fully immersive document of one of the most mind-bendingly psychedelic live shows ever seen, not even talking about the Dolby 7:1 surround sound!
In January of 2012, 20 cinemas across 20 cities worldwide will host an exclusive advance screening offering fans the first chance to see the movie.
'Don't Think' is due to be shown on more than 500 screens in over 20 territories from February 2012 onwards. Don’t Think. Just let it flow! Now that's a great start of 2012...
