Watch: Sonicsgate Screening

Sonicsgate Screening

After selling out its SIFF premiere, this tragic documentary about how the Sonics were stolen/sold/forced out has added an encore screening ahead of its online release later this month. Featuring loads of Seattle hip-hop, the doc boasts 39 exclusive interviews, from George Karl and Gary Payton to Kevin Calabro and Slade Gorton; word is even Steve Scheffler wanted in, but Xavier McDaniel told him not to come yet.
