More than a year after its Sundance debut, the St. Vincent-starring mockumentary The Nowhere Inn has finally received its first trailer. The film also features Sleater-Kinney member and Portlandia star Carrie Brownstein, who is recruited by Annie Clark to document her latest concert tour.
“It was supposed to be a music documentary. Concert footage, interviews… I wanted people to know who I really am,” Clark explains to the camera. “One of the reasons why I wanted to make a documentary in the first place is because I would finally be in control of the narrative. A small part of me was starting to second guess itself. Why was the movie never completed? All I can say is that somewhere along the way things went terribly wrong.”
In his review of The Nowhere Inn, our very own Clint Worthington wrote that it is “a half-baked attempt to both cut through that perception and paradoxically reinforce” the idea of St. Vincent being “a hard nut to crack.”
