The Blue is Beautiful one sheet:

Blue Is Beautiful is the 30 plus minute guerrilla style documentary concerning the psychedelic Gospel group 'Make-up' and its attempts to win political asylum in the unexplored hinterland to the north. En route, the moving picture portrays their treacherous mechanical march across the post-industrial wasteland of the so-called rust belt, through a horrifying commercial Christmas barrage and into the arms of the American underground. The music falls away at times, and a skeletal sermon narrates the desperation of a group which COINTELPRO advised American law enforcement officials nationwide to "terminate with extreme prejudice". The manhunt flails through wildcat clubs in Detroit-Cincinnati-New York-Boston-Toronto-D.C. and Montreal. Schneider shows the mandibles of the beast and its attempts to alienate the group from its tribe.
