From the organizer: Impressions is pleased to present the rockumentary Welcome to the Machine. Is there a set path to glory? Or does it all come down to luck and coincidence, charisma and talent? Based on numerous interviews, Welcome to the Machine traces the inner workings of the global music business.
Writer-director Andreas Steinkogler uncovers "The 12 Commandments" of music business - the secret of success, the purpose of music awards, the whole truth about recording contracts and nine other monstrosities – by asking the people involved in the business. He interviewed numerous bands, artists, producers, marketers, PR people and music festival organisers from various countries including, White Lies (UK), Black Rebel Motorcycle Club (US), director Anton Corbijn (Control), Chilly Gonzalez (CA) and many more, to uncover the truth behind the music industry and to answer the question "Is there one right way to fame?"
Filmmaker Andreas Steinkogler will be present at the screening and will participate at a Q&A session with the audience after the film.
Welcome to the Machine has been presented in various countries including Vietnam here it was screened in Hanoi and only once in Saigon at deciBel Lounge.
