Nick Canfield's 'Oh Yeah!' On Yello Cult Song Acquired By Documentary+, Rolling Stone Films Ahead Of Tribeca Premiere
Briefly

The documentary short "Oh Yeah!" delves into the cultural resonance of Yello's 1980s hit song, famously featured in "Ferris Bueller's Day Off." Directed by Nick Canfield, the film is set for its premiere at the Tribeca Festival on June 7. It features interviews with notable figures, including Alan Ruck and Reggie Watts, while examining the song's influence through various forms of media. The documentary highlights both Yello's creative journey and the extraordinary impact of a single song on wider cultural narratives.
"I am fascinated by the impact and longevity of this special song and what that says about our culture," said the helmer.
"A specific examination, like one song, can be the best way to reveal something larger about our society."
"I also found Boris Blank and Dieter Meier of Yello to be a wonderfully interesting and hilarious duo, as well as truly singular artists whose story really needs to be told to a wider audience."
