Warp X is pleased to announce the UK premiere of All Tomorrow's Parties at the Edinburgh International Film Festival screening on 24 and 25 June. All Tomorrow's Parties is a kaleidoscopic journey into the parallel musical universe of the cult music festival of the same name.

The film is a semi-found bricolage made from Super8, camcorder and mobile phone footage contributed by over two hundred filmmakers, fans and musicians over the festival's recent history, with key contributions from co-director Jonathan Caouette (Tarnation) and cinematographer Vincent Moon (The Take Away Shows, Arcade Fire).

Future Cinema, in association with Warp Films, ATP and Synergy, will present the premiere of All Tomorrow's Parties as part of a unique live cinema event at the Edinburgh International Film Festival on June 24.  The film will be screened and brought to life in an immersive and 360 degree musical experience, including live performances from very special surprise guests.
