Zappa movie will be premiered at SXSW festival

Alex Winter's film "Zappa" will be premiered at the SXSW (South by Southwest) festival in Austin, Texas in March 2020.

The film is made possible through a kickstarter campaign and the material has been selected while digitalizing the Frank Zappa archives, but it has also been sent by fans to Alex Winter.

Alex Winter writes:
"Here's the very first look at our special festival poster for Zappa. It will ONLY be used for festival screenings prior the public release of the film.

The first date is June 2 in Portland, Oregon with the tour ending in Bethel, New York on July 11.

Tickets go on sale this month. January 20 is the presale date for the fans a little more worthy than the rest of us. We can fight over the remainders starting January 25. And, yes, it is USA and Canada only this time around.
