Rock is music for young people. Nick Rock-n-Roll, the protagonist of the film, doesn’t agree with it all. He’s 48 years old and as during his youth he still feels music deeply and looking for something special, unusual, which is out of stereotypes and mainstream. This film is about immersion in a world of new independent rock-music in Russia. Dipping into it Nick Rock-n-Roll remembers his own life, analyzing the nature of his passionate love to rock. His eternal search allows Nick not to feel his age that’s why it is necessary for him always to slake his thirst.

'The Ambiguity of David Thomas Broughton' is a musical documentary following the creative process of one of the UK’s most enigmatic musicians and performers. As a musical act, David Thomas Broughton is almost unclassifiable. His live shows are a exhilarating mix of musical experimentation and performance art, underlined with a raw unpredictability.

His journey takes him to David’s home town of Otley, where we track David’s creative process as he records new material to be played at the End of the Road Festival.
