French electronic music duo Daft Punk have been around since 1993, but we have yet to see their true identity from under their masks until now. A new French documentary take you behind one of the most secretive duo in DAFT PUNK UNCHAINED. Some of their famous friends and collaborators such as Pharrell Williams and Kanye West make appearances in this trailer from the documentary.
Directed by Hervé Martin Delpierre, we’re hoping the UK is not the only place we can see DAFT PUNK UNCHAINED. Other famous pals such as Nile Rodgers, Giorgio Moroder, Michel Gondry, Paul Williams, Peter Lindbergh, Leiji Matsumoto and Pete Tong reflect on their phenomena.
Between fiction and reality, magic and secrets, theatricality and humility, Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo have created a unique artistic universe. Throughout their career they have remained determined to control every link in the chain of their creative work. The film highlights key moments of their story, from their first school band in Paris to their historic concert at Coachella festival in 2006 and their spectacular triumph at the 2014 Grammy Awards for the album « Random Access Memories ». In an era of globalisation and the expansion of social media, they have refused to show their own faces and they orchestrate every detail of their appearances as robots.
