한국어/조선말
깔끔한 슈트 차림의 남자가 분홍빛 모형 뇌를 두드린다. 주름을 더듬으며 열창하는 그는 80년대를 풍미한 락 밴드 토킹헤즈의 보컬이었던 데이비드 번. 그의 시선은 각종 음악적 장치를 동원해 정부, 텔레비전, 인종차별, 민주주의로 뻗어간다. 번은 단상인 듯 수필처럼, 논설인 듯 주술처럼 노랫말을 쏟아내며 변화 가능성을 긍정한다. 뮤지컬, 콘서트, 때로 스탠드업 코미디로도 보이는 이 작품은 세계의 안녕과 우리의 연결을 염원하는 노년 예술가의 한바탕 굿처럼 느껴지기도. 2019년 브로드웨이에서 펼쳐진 동명의 공연실황을 스파이크 리 감독이 카메라에 담았다.

Til at forevige dette kritikerroste koncertshow på levende billeder står ingen ringere end instruktørlegenden Spike Lee, der forvandler produktionen til en opslugende, dynamisk film, som udstråler forbløffende fremførelser, opfindsom dans og politiske budskaber i sange som Burning Down the House, This Must Be the Place og mange andre.
