Perfect Partner is a first time collaboration between Sonic Youth founder Kim Gordon, renowned artist Tony Oursler and filmmaker Phil Morrison. In a response to America's enchantment with car culture, this surreal psychodrama cum road movie starring Michael Pitt (The Dreamers, Last Days) unfolds to a thundering free rock live soundtrack. Kim Gordon is joined on stage by fellow Sonic Youth member, producer extraordinaire, composer and 'School Of Rock' collaborator Jim O'Rourke, percussionist Tim Barnes, ex DNA laptop virtuoso Ikue Mori and turntable whizz DJ Olive.
