The Korean Culture Society continues its Free Korean Movie Night with a Free Screening of the documentary Turn it up to 11.

Synopsis of Turn it up to 11:

Winner of four major film awards, and the documentary that spawned the Korean catch phrase, “I don’t think we’re gonna make it,” TURN IT UP TO 11 is a rambunctious rock n’roll odyssey about Incheon’s unlikeliest talent incubator: Ruby Salon. A tiny, hole-in-the-wall club founded by aging punk Lee Kyou-Young, who moved back home to Incheon after accidentally getting his girlfriend pregnant, Ruby Salon is the seed that sprouts two bands: Galaxy Express, a tight, ambitious outfit that dreams of stardom; and Tobacco Juice, a band whose members are so lazy they can’t even be bothered to show up for gigs. As one band goes up, and the other goes down, this slacker doc follows them to shows, bars, massive concerts, antagonistic rehearsals and empty clubs in the best movie ever made about the Korean music scene.
