Doc'n Roll Film Festival Presents: Hakeem + Q&A

An unconventional music documentary for a very unconventional musician, this film follows Hak Baker over five years. Directed by the filmmaking duo of DEADHORSES (James Topley and Ivo Beckett), Hakeem balances profundity and profanity as Hakeem confronts the traumas of class and masculinity in the wake of his sudden stardom. An anarchic yet sincere portrait of British lad culture, full of arresting aesthetics and savage honesty, Hakeem is more than a chronicle of a musician's life – it’s a fascinating and intimate portrait of existential angst, brotherhood and hope in the face of the taboos that surround male mental health.
