Synopsis

If old is the new new, then Frank Fairfield is a 20th century heart-throb.

A 25 year-old, old-time musician from LA, Frank plays to the timeless beat of eccentricity. But this is NOT an act. His unique world-view on the natural state of things includes playing songs "that have existed forever" with complete authority and collecting old 78s from around the world. His encyclopedic mind and crate digging is on display in this short film.

Frank Fairfield: a man-out-of-time. Just in time.
