After a special screening of the documentary in the duo’s hometown Atlanta on March 29th, It’s Only Life After All will premiere in theaters across the country on April 10th only. Then, on May 7th, its digital release will arrive.
Speaking about the documentary, its director, Alexandria Bombach, said: “Festival audiences have embraced and celebrated this story of Amy [Ray] and Emily [Saliers], and now we get to bring this film to fans in theaters all over the country. A film about community should be seen in community.”
For their part, the band has praised Bombach’s treatment of their lives. “From our earliest days at Little Five Points Community Pub in Atlanta, the ideal of ‘community’ has informed our music and activism,” Ray said. “We feel blessed to have worked with such a compelling crew of folks, who created a document that reflects the vital part our audience, activists, friends, family, and mentors play in our ongoing creative lives.”
In her statement, Saliers said: “It is a beautiful documentary that captures the life force of our community. Now our community has an opportunity to see it on the big screen — we are thankful for that.”
