Gogol Bordello Non-Stop is a 2008 music documentary film, written and directed by Margarita Jimeno and starring Gogol Bordello and Eugene Hütz.
Synopsis
Chronicles the notorious live band Gogol Bordello and front man Eugene Hütz, a gypsy-punk Ukrainian immigrant. Includes footage of raucous gigs from 2001 to 2007, as the band begins in dingy basement venues and eventually gains fame on international stages.
Critical response
“In Gogol Bordello Non-Stop Eugene Hutz emerges as a passionate, articulate philosopher of punk’s democratic participatory aesthetic who espouses the rejection of social hierarchies in concerts that are raucous, bacchanalian performance-art carnivals.” — Stephen Holden, The New York Times

“Margarita managed to not only portray a band, but also the social aspects of being an immigrant and taking the responsibility to play with identities. Also the film is fresh, enjoyable and punk". The Jury
