Synopsis

In *Vinylmania*, director Paolo Campana guides us through the grooves of an object that has never lost its soul. He investigates what makes it so legendary in a world dominated by liquid music: Is it simple nostalgia? Possession? The search for an identity? A cry against fast-food-like music? The digital river that has no heart or soul, just ones and zeros. From Tokyo to New York, London, Paris, and Prague, we meet a tribe of collectors, DJs, musicians, and artists. We explore the stores where passion is transformed into fever and the factories that have resumed stamping millions of copies. Vinyl records are back!
