Bruce Springsteen, Elton John, Jim James, Nick Jonas, Taylor Hawkins, Jakob Dylan and others appear in the film.<\/p>\n

\u201cOver the years Jason and I have had a lot of fun times \u2014 just relaxing and listening to music, talking at the deli and cruising down to Malibu for sushi, so we got into that groove to make this movie,\u201d Wilson told Rolling Stone<\/em> in 2018. \u201cI hope it shows people the love I feel and the hope I have to share love through my music.\u201d<\/p>\n

The career of Rolling Stones\u2019 rhythm guitarist Ronnie Wood will be told in Somebody Up There Likes Me <\/a>\u2014 <\/em>from when he was at the helm of the British R&B explosion playing in Faces and the Jeff Beck Group, to the present with the Stones. Directed by Mike Figgis, the film will feature Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Rod Stewart, Charlie Watts and others.<\/p>\n

The festival will open on April 15th, kicking off with Jimmy Carter Rock and Roll President<\/em><\/a> at New York\u2019s Beacon Theatre. The documentary captures the former president and his lifelong love of music. Willie Nelson will perform after the premiere.<\/p>\n

Other films featured this year include The Go-Go\u2019s<\/em><\/a>, a documentary on the New Wave band directed by Alison Ellwood; Don\u2019t Try to Understand: A Year in the Life of Earl \u201cDMX\u201d Simmon<\/em>s and Ice Cold<\/em>, a movie about rappers and their love of jewelry, featuring Migos, Lil Yachty, J Balvin, Slick Rick and more.<\/p>\n

Truth to Power<\/em> \u2014 a film about System of a Down\u2019s Serj Tankianwill and Armenia\u2019s political revolution \u2014 will have its world premiere at the festival. Rick Rubin, Tom Morello, Shavo Odadjian and others are included in the film.<\/p>\n

Other world premieres include Ricky Powell: The Individualist<\/em>, a film about the photographer\u2019s career and tour with the Beastie Boys, told by Natasha Lyonne, Debi Mazar, Mike D, Laurence Fishburne, Chuck D, LL Cool J and more; and Freedia Got a Gun<\/em>, which shows Big Freedia shining a spotlight on gun reform.<\/p>\n

The Go-Go\u2019s, DMX and Tankian will perform after their films, while Big Freedia will appear in conversation.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis year\u2019s festival embraces the unique power of film to bring people together \u2014 whether that\u2019s literally the communal experience of watching a film in a packed theater or the more intangible way a great film can make you empathize with a stranger\u2019s struggle,\u201d Festival Director Cara Cusumano said in a statement. \u201cIn an election year where we will go to the polls to make big decisions about our future together, these films are an opportunity for connection and understanding.\u201d<\/p>\n

Passes for the festival are on sale now<\/a>, while packages go on sale March 8th. Single passes will become available on March 17th.<\/p>\n
