How to Save a Milestone

Gentrification is creeping toward North Carolina’s legendary Milestone Club, a gritty punk haven that’s hosted bands from R.E.M. to Nirvana to The Go-Go’s. With 50+ years of music history etched into its walls, this DIY venue is hanging on by a thread. This documentary captures the struggle to save the Milestone - and the larger fight to save independent venues nationwide. Featuring artists like Violent Femmes, it’s a raw, urgent look at the vanishing heart of live music.
