Metal is a documentary that looks at what made Metal, how it grew and how it has transcended fashion, ridicule and ignorance. It will inform and entertain the uninitiated. If you know nothing about it by the time the credits roll, love it or loath it you'll understand how, why and what it does. For the hardcore Metal fans this will become a benchmark, it will reinforce and reaffirm their allegiance. Metal features interviews and archive from some of the most influential and respected musicians of the genre as well as commentators and fans. Created by award winning duo Director Dick Carruthers and Producer Jim Parsons, Metal is a film that unravels the music, the myths and the madness.
