Filmemacherin Jessie Auritt aus New York hat diesen wunderschönen Film über den Birdman und seinen Plattenladen gedreht. Der 70-jährige Besitzer des Geschäfts ist ebenso Wind-schief und liebenswert wie sein Laden.
Rainbow Music ist unglaublich überfüllt mit CDs und Vinyl, der alte Herr weiß aber genau, wo er zu suchen hat um die wünsche der Kunden zu erfüllen.
-> With CDs, VHSs and old cassette tapes stacked head high, Rainbow Music is a hoarder’s paradise. However, its quirky owner, known as ‚The Birdman‘, knows exactly where everything is.
Amidst the Starbucks and Subways popping up on every corner of the East Village, Rainbow Music maintains its mom and pop feel, and is a hidden gem to its patrons.
Due to the weak economy, online music sales and pirating, and the changing neighborhood, this charismatic curmudgeon is struggling to sell what he has in his store. Despite these challenges, The Birdman carries on to his own tune.
