the history of future folk.

Quirky, super low budget winner about Future Folk, the Brooklyn-based folk outfit  comprised of two aliens from the planet Hondo.

They’re like Flight of the Conchords, but they exclusively play folk and are from much, much farther away than New Zealand.

The History of Future Folk catalogues their origin story, as they come earth to wipe out humanity in order to save their own planet, but fall in love with earth music and realize they need to find a way to save both worlds.

This movie is as sweet as it is unique, and as full of heart as it is unselfconscious. As the trailer says, this is the greatest alien folk-due, sci-fi, action, romance, comedy movie ever made.
