Building a Broken Mousetrap plot

Documentary about the Dutch independent band The Ex. Cohen cuts through the images of a concert in New York with collages. According to the makers, these collages of Amsterdam and New York have special meanings. The images of the various construction sites, for example, are synonymous with the objective of The Ex, which sees music as a place for collective construction and creative destruction. The images of the anti-Bush demonstrations reflect the clear political nature of the band.
