Mistaken for Strangers(2013)
Mistaken for Strangers Synopsis
Mistaken for Strangers follows The National on its biggest tour to date. Newbie roadie Tom (lead singer Matt Berninger’s younger brother) is a heavy metal and horror movie enthusiast, and can't help but put his own spin on the experience. Inevitably, Tom’s moonlighting as an irreverent documentarian creates some drama for the band on the road. The film is a hilarious and touching look at two very different brothers, and an entertaining story of artistic aspiration.
Mistaken for Strangers (2013) is a documentary, music and comedy film directed by Tom Berninger, released on September 19, 2013 with a runtime of 1h 15m. It stars Matt Berninger, Tom Berninger, Aaron Dessner and Bryce Dessner. Viewers rate it 7.2 out of 10 across 58 ratings.
