Director: Anton Corbijn, Official Selection: Sundance Film Festival & Telluride Film Festival, NR
Celebrated photographer, creative director and filmmaker Anton Corbijn’s first feature documentary SQUARING THE CIRCLE tells the story of Storm Thorgerson and Aubrey “Po” Powell, the creative geniuses behind the iconic album art design studio, Hipgnosis, responsible for some of the most recognizable album covers of all time. During this period, record companies didn’t dictate to acts like Peter Gabriel, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin and Paul McCartney what their LP covers should look like—Storm and Po did. “Squaring the Circle is catnip for a music lover of a certain age with a treasured cache.” —Los Angeles Times
