Description:
Intended more as a home theater experience than a conventional racecar documentary, Speed Tribe plays like a dance rave on the racing circuit. It works more as a showcase for heavily processed digital imagery and rib-thumping electronica, combined with the inherent thrills of racing's most challenging annual endurance event, Le 24 Heures du Mans. The digital video of 2001's Le Mans race does not function as a historical record of the event; instead, filmmakers Rod Chong and Sharon Matarazzo create an impressionistic tapestry of the Le Mans experience, employing all varieties of image manipulation and multiangle viewing, while the rhythmic, pulsating soundtrack (by Front 242 cofounders Daniel Bressanuti and Patrick Codenys) keeps pace with the zooming Audis, Porsches, Corvettes, and Panoz competitors. Like Moby's Play the DVD, this techno-disc is perfect for pushing your home theater to the limit; an expanded soundtrack CD and audio-only race-driver interviews are icing on the highly stimulating cake. --Jeff Shannon
