Gogol Bordello Non-Stop on DVD March 16th

A vibrant chronicle of one of today's most notorious and revered live bands, GOGOL BORDELLO NON-STOP follows Eugene Hütz's gypsy-punk brigade around the world as they spread their liberating libertine musical gospel. Filmmaker Margarita Jimeno tracks their raucous gigs from 2001 to 2006, from NYC to Italy, as the band rises from dingy basements to festival main-stages. The cast is a rotating circus of polyglot personalities from Israel, Russia and America, who dish on their music, their heritage, and their favored vices. Hütz, a sardonic mustachioed Ukrainian immigrant and the group ringleader, fuses his gypsy heritage with a love of punk rock and burlesque. Part carnival barker, social organizer, and poet, he's a mesmerizing presence on-stage and off.

GOGOL BORDELLO NON-STOP is an artful documentary that mixes flamboyant costumes, intricate dance choreography, a relentless beat and an explosive energy not seen since the dawn of rock 'n' roll.

The DVD will be released by Knitting Factory Entertainment, a specialty distribution arm of Kino Lorber, Inc. dedicated to releasing the best in world music documentaries. Drawing on its rich history of introducing indie and avant garde musicians to audiences at New York's legendary Knitting Factory club, the label will focus on bringing the world music experience to an even wider audience with definitive films about the most exciting artists of our time. Recent releases include A Not So Silent Night, featuring Kate and Anna McGarrigle and Fela Kuti: Music Is The Weapon.
