About 45RPM

45RPM is a dark comedy that extends the world of the classic American road movie into multiple mediums while exploring rich Southern history and at the same time helping advance independent film possibilities in Arkansas.

The film follows Charlie, a struggling city artist who seeks a connection between her artwork and her estranged father’s music. She teams up with Louie, an obsessive record collector from Memphis, and begins an exhaustive search for a rare 45 recording from the 1960s Arkansas garage rock scene that takes them both on a journey across the seldom-explored landscape of the new Old South.

Drawing on Arkansas’ unique musical history, showcasing local artists,  and featuring original music, 45RPM is scheduled premiere in October 2012.
