The Sinks

Jacob Staudenmaier
United States, 2026, 16 min.

In English.
Includes adult language.

A small band from Tucson - comprised of four best friends - plays their final show at the end of college.

Director's Statement

At the beginning of 2024, The Sinks announced that they would be playing one final show before ending the band – a group that had been together since high school. I was compelled to travel out to Tucson for the show and record the band's day leading up to their final performance. What followed is what you see in this documentary; a touching portrait of fading youth and how life sometimes gets in the way of art and creation. This documentary is a celebration of a local community, and an unknown band that meant the world to them.
