About me:
SYNOPSIS
Sam Dunn is a 30-year-old anthropologist. He's also a lifelong metal fan. After years
of studying diverse cultures, Sam turns his academic eye a little closer to home and
embarks on an epic journey into the heart of heavy metal. His mission: to figure out
why metal music is consistently stereotyped, dismissed and condemned, even while
the tribe that loves it stubbornly holds its ground, spreading the word, keeping the
faith, and adopting styles and attitudes that go way beyond the music.
Sam visits heavy metal landmarks as far flung as L.A.'s Sunset Strip, the dirty streets
of Birmingham, and the dark forests of Norway. Along the way, the two sides of Sam
Dunn; curious anthropologist and rabid fan; collide, as Sam explores metal's
obsession with sex, religion, violence and death, meets his heroes, and discovers
some things about the culture that even he can't defend. Part social document, part
celebration of a misunderstood art form, this documentary is the first of its kind: a
chance for metal fans to speak out and a window into a culture that's far more
complex than it seems.
