A vibrant new trailer for indie music documentary Meet Me in the Bathroom, which is based on Elizabeth Goodman’s book about the New York music scene of the early 2000s, has been shared.
The film follows the likes of The Strokes, The Rapture, Interpol, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, LCD Soundsystem and more, documenting the "last great romantic age of Rock’n’Roll through the prism of a handful of era defining bands".
It draws on raw archival material and dives into a world unaware of the seismic political, technological and cultural shifts about to occur. Immersing the viewer in a pre-social media, pre-gentrification world of New York, the documentary examines the lives of key figures from each band, as well as the transformation of the city, and the cultural forces that shaped it.
Meet Me in the Bathroom was inspired by music journalist Elizabeth Goodman’s bestselling book Meet Me in the Bathroom: Rebirth and Rock and Roll in New York City 2001–2011, which was published in 2017.

Directed by Dylan Southern and Will Lovelace (Shut Up and Play the Hits), the documentary combines never before seen footage, intimate audio interviews and a visceral sense of time and place, set against the backdrop of 9/11.
Meet Me in the Bathroom premiered at Sundance Film Festival in January. The music documentary is coming to theaters and streaming on Showtime in November.
