Devo

Chris Smith, USA, UK 2024, 93’
Henry Fonda for President

Devo – prophets of ‘de-evolution,’ a theory that humanity is regressing rather than progressing. Pioneers in combining music and visuals on stage, Devo became cultural agitators who played with thrash aesthetics and infiltrating the mainstream. This documentary chronicles the band's (de)evolution and their profound influence on American music and culture.
