ROCK THAT UKE
The ukulele is more than a tiny musical instrument. It’s a state of mind.
This eccentric documentary examines the mystical allure of this
four-stringed underdog and the recent surge of post-punk musicians who have
taken up the instrument as a counter cultural statement. From the
traditional to the distorted, today’s ukulele players have tapped into a
raucous and irreverent source of irony, angst and impotent rage. Dir.
William Preston Robertson and Sean Anderson, USA 2002, 75 min.

Outsider music has no better representative than B.J. Snowden, a substitute
teacher who writes and sings songs about Canada and the U.S. Navy. Dir. Doug
