In the Court of the Crimson King: King Crimson at 50

What began as a straightforward documentary about the cult rock band King Crimson as it turned 50, mutated into an exploration of time, death, family, and the transcendent power of music to change lives.



A film by Toby Amies recording the relentless suffering and fleeting glory of playing in the world's most demanding rock band: King Crimson. Contains extraordinary music, complex time signatures, meditations on mortality, and bad jokes.
