A prismatic\, narrative\, scripted\, documentary\, musical\, metatextual  hybrid\, the film intimately shows the band preparing for their sold-out 2022 reunion tour while simultaneously tracking the preparations for a musical based on their songs\, a museum devoted to  their history and a big-budget Hollywood biopic inspired by their saga as the most important band  of a generation. Anchored by Pavement’s slacker-sage-sphinx Stephen Malkmus\, the film features performances by Joe Keery\, Jason Schwartzman\, Tim Heidecker\, Kathryn Gallagher\, Michael Esper\, and Zoe Lister-Jones\, as well as editing by nonfiction innovator Robert Greene (Procession). Unrated. 128 minutes.\n\n“I think they (Pavement) are the most fascinating text you can study if you want to study every single question about music in the 1990s\,” Alex Ross Parry\, New York Times article with David Renard\, May 18\, 2025\n\nSLACKERS AT THE STEAMPLANT:\n\nDress like a forgotten generation. 90’s fits like underground T’s and punk encouraged\, grunge tolerated. Take your shot at 90’s indie rock music trivia as you find your spot. Sit back in cushy seats like you just turned 50 and enjoy the screening. Then after the film\, stay for the Slacker Party on the SteamPlant Plaza with 90’s underground mixes by DJ Mike the Science Guy\, a Teenage Dirtbag slideshow featuring cameos by willing Salida Gen Xers\, and cynical snacks for all you latch key kids. Cash bar and realistic expectations available.\n\nEvent: PAVEMENTS Documentary + Slackers at the SteamPlant Party\nDate: Friday\, July 25\nDoors at 6:00pm\n90’s indie Trivia at 6:30pm\nFilm at 7:00pm- 9:08pm\nSlacker Party after film on the Plaza until 10:15pm.\nTickets| $15 on Eventbrite or at the SteamPlant Box Office 719-530-0933
