Gimme Shelter

Gimme Shelter begins as an exciting look at The Rolling Stones during the height of their powers, specifically their 1969 US tour. Then, when you’re least prepared, it becomes something else entirely: a ticking time bomb leading to the Stones’ final show, during which the infamous stabbing at Altamont Speedway leaves one man dead. Filmed with absolute conviction, in part by legendary documentarians Albert and David Maysles, this one-of-a-kind masterwork enshrines history onto celluloid with palpable immediacy.
