Press release:
HERE THERE AND EVERYWHERE, THE BEATLES FAN FILM GOES INTO PRODUCTION!
Production starts later this month on “Here There & Everywhere” a landmark documentary film project, supported by The Cavern Club, The Beatles Story Museum, The Hard Days Night Hotel, The Fest For Fans, Abbey Road on the River and The British Beatles Fan Club, and many others.
The film, shooting throughout this year and released in the summer of 2018, is an 80-minute ‘love letter’ spanning the band’s history as seen through the eyes, felt through the hearts and as told through the memories of the fans . . . from those who organise the fan festivals and tribute concerts . . the Club and event runners who keep the fans together, the memorabilia collectors who amaze and
delight with their rare and unseen photographs and films. . . to the authors who continue to breathe fresh life into the never-ending magical mystery tour.
“Here There & Everywhere” pays homage to the global family, showcasing their contributions towards fuelling The Beatles eternal flame. “Here There & Everywhere” is The Beatles story as told by the fans and an important part of The Beatles future archive legacy!
As part of the ongoing production the producers will also encourage artists and animators around the world to include their Beatles-inspired interludes in the film. But perhaps most importantly, if fans have a story to tell, then they can get in touch and the producers will look to include contributors and their stories in the film.
Many artists and bands will pack “Here There & Everywhere” with performances. And special licensed recordings will also be produced, featuring musicians and vocalists from around the world, creating a global Beatles soundtrack. The film will also feature a “surprise” finale, to be announced over the months ahead. The film will be launched at a number of iconic venues after release, with a TV broadcast release at the conclusion of the project.
