Records is a film about music. It’s not about a particular band or artist or a genre of music. It’s about the power of music and the people who live for it.

These folks - call them collectors, obsessives, or geeks - use music as a drug, as inspiration, as a connection to the world, as a way to get in touch with their emotions, or as a way to modify their emotions.

Often referred to as a “national treasure”, Alan Zweig is one of Canada’s best-loved documentarians and perhaps the country’s best interviewer. Alan made an indelible mark with his first documentary, Vinyl, a portrait of compulsive record collectors that quickly became a cult classic.
