What Metal: A Headbanger's Journey Is About
Sam Dunn trained as an anthropologist and has been listening to metal since he was twelve, and he builds the film as fieldwork rather than fan tribute. He draws a family tree splitting the genre into its branches, then goes after each branch in turn: the campsites at Wacken, Norway in the shadow of the church burnings, the American censorship hearings of the eighties. His question stays honest throughout. Why does this music pull so many people in, and why does it offend so many others?
