Having met the director Jeanie and seen previous work, I knew ‘Sound It Out’ was going to be good. Then I saw the trailer on IndieGoGo and was spurred into action. My first Saturday job was working in my local record shop – they’re powerful places, libraries for those whose neurotransmitters are craving particulars sound. Unfortunately, vinyl shops are becoming more like dusty old museums. This film captures history.

The first and last record I bought:

Synopsis

Glimmer Films in association with Sideshow present a film by Jeanie Finlay; SOUND IT OUT.

Over the last five years an independent record shop has closed in the UK every three days.

SOUND IT OUT is a documentary portrait of the very last surviving vinyl record shop in Teesside, North East England.

A cultural haven in one of the most deprived areas in the UK, SOUND IT OUT documents a place that is thriving against the odds and the local community that keeps it alive. Directed by Jeanie Finlay who grew up three miles from the shop.

A distinctive, funny and intimate film about men, the North and the irreplaceable role music plays in our lives.

High Fidelity with a Northern Accent.
