TICKETS / Los Angeles / Nuart Theatre
Coming Soon
From the production team behind the Oscar-winning Searching for Sugar Man comes the transcendent rock & roll saga of X Japan, the world’s biggest and most successful band you’ve never heard of...yet. Under the enigmatic direction of powerhouse drummer, pianist, composer and producer Yoshiki, X Japan has sold over 30 million albums and sold out the Tokyo Dome a record 18 times (one more than Michael Jackson)—captivating a wide range of admirers including Sir George Martin, KISS, Stan Lee and even the Japanese Emperor—and pioneered a spectacle-driven style of visual rock, creating a one-of-a-kind cultural phenomenon. Chronicling the band’s exhilarating, tumultuous and unimaginable history over the past three decades—persevering through personal, physical and spiritual heartache—the film culminates with preparations for their breathtaking reunion concert at New York’s legendary Madison Square Garden. Directed by acclaimed documentarian Stephen Kijak (Stones in Exile, Scott Walker: 30 Century Man), We Are X is an astonishingly intimate portrait of a deeply haunted—but truly unstoppable—virtuoso and the music that has enthralled legions of the world’s most devoted fans. (Partially subtitled)
