Background

The film follows Justice's March 2008 North American tour. This documentary is directed by Romain Gavras, So Me and the band themselves. The documentary is meant to cover less of the band's live shows, and more of their personal experience touring.[1]

The live portion of this release was recorded at a concert in San Francisco, California at the Concourse Exhibition Center, on March 27, 2008.

The film was released alongside a live album of the same name.

The film's style inspired award-winning 2012 documentary film Let's Make Lemonade directed by Justin Friesen.[2]

Reception

Reception of the film has been positive.

Justine JC of Scene Crave said: "The cinematography is artistic and raw, yet deft, making the mess of a story line (well, lack there of…) strangely engaging. The film is literally an arbitrary compilation of the people and events involved in the band’s tour." [4]
