Plot Summary
Though culminating with the farewell concert the band played to thousands of adoring fans in their hometown of Sheffield, England, PULP is by no means a traditional concert film or rock doc. As much a testament to the band as it is to the city and inhabitants of Sheffield, PULP weaves exclusive concert footage with man-on-the-street interviews and dreamy staged sequences to paint a picture much larger, funnier, moving, and life-affirming than any music film of recent memory.

Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: While director Habicht is perhaps too obsessed with 'Common People' (it is played over and over again), he manages to pull together a thoroughly entertaining musical journey that admirably does more with the medium than others of its kind.
Fresh: Fans of the eccentric Jarvis Cocker will delight in Pulp: A Film About Life, Death and Supermarkets.
Fresh: The interpersonal dynamics, musical techniques, or fears that any particular band member talks about blessedly never get too heavy here.
Fresh: A smart, almost too smart, mish-mash of concert film and urban portrait, Pulp: A Film About Life, Death & Supermarkets is a distinctively different class of rock doc.
