"It's About You" is a new musical documentary that offers a rare and
intimate look at the life and music of Rock and Roll Hall of Famer John
Mellencamp. The film premiered at the SXSW festival and follows
Mellencamp on his summer 2009 concert tour and during the recording of
his most recent album, 2010's universally acclaimed "No Better Than
This," the sessions for which took place at American musical and
historical landmarks, including Sun Studios in Memphis and the First
African Baptist Church in Savannah, GA. We see Mellencamp recording –
with a single mike and mono tape recorder more than half a century old –
in the same hotel room where legendary bluesman Robert Johnson created
some of his most memorable work. Along the way, Mellencamp reveals an
emotional side never before seen by the public, in a film that becomes a
soulful, highly personal meditation on his beloved small-town America.
Kurt Markus' photography has appeared in such leading publications as
Vanity Fair, Rolling Stone, GQ and The New York Times Magazine, and he
has shot cutting-edge ad campaigns for BMW, Armani, Nike and other
companies. His unique vision has been brought to bear on "It's About
You," which was shot on Super 8 and whose vintage Americana look is the
cinematic equivalent of a well-worn pair of jeans.
