Please note this is a region 2 DVD and will require a region 2 (Europe) or region Free DVD Player in order to play.  Acclaimed Irish director Lenny Abrahamson follows up his award-winning films Adam & Paul, Garage and What Richard Did with an offbeat comedy about a young wannabe musician, Jon (Domhnall Gleeson), who finds himself out of his depth when he joins an avant-garde pop band led by the mysterious and enigmatic Frank (Michael Fassbender), a musical genius who hides himself inside a large fake head, and his terrifying bandmate Clara (Maggie Gyllenhaal). Written by Jon Ronson (The Men Who Stare At Goats) and Peter Straughan (Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, The Men Who Stare At Goats), FRANK is based on the memoir by Jon Ronson. It is a fictional story loosely inspired by Frank Sidebottom, the persona of cult musician and comedy legend Chris Sievey.

Quirky Irish comedy drama starring Michael Fassbender and Maggie Gyllenhaal. Jon (Domhnall Gleeson), a young musician who dreams of making it big, realises that he has his work cut out for him when he joins the experimental band Soronprfbs, which is fronted by Frank Sidebottom (Fassbender). Frank, who has been plagued by mental illness throughout his life, chooses to wear a papier-mache head at all times and is the main force behind the band's music and enigmatic appeal. The band retreat to a secluded cabin to begin a month-long recording session, much to Jon's surprise, but as their creative differences begin to cause tension amongst themselves, Jon is forced to reassess his position in the group.
