Reality Check TV has issued footage from the ANVIL! The Story Of Anvil screening on May 3rd at the Bridge Theater in San Francisco, CA.

Footage of fans at the screening, as well as the band's performance afterwards, can be viewed below.

Anvil! The Story of Anvil is the directorial debut of screenwriter Sacha Gervasi (The Terminal) and was produced by Rebecca Yeldham (The Kite Runner and The Motorcycle Diaries). The film follows Steve “Lips” Kudlow and Robb Reiner and their band, Anvil, which released one of the heaviest albums in metal history, 1982’s Metal on Metal. The album influenced an entire musical generation of rock bands, including Metallica, Slayer, and Anthrax, who all went on to sell millions of records. Anvil, on the other hand, took a different path—straight to obscurity. The film is both entertaining and touching as it follows their last-ditch quest for the fame and fortune that has been so elusive to them. Anvil! The Story of Anvil is a timeless tale of survival and the unadulterated passion it takes to follow your dream, year after year.

Praised as "The best documentary I’ve seen in years,” by documentarian Michael Moore, Anvil! The Story of Anvil contains appearances by an array of heavy metal icons, including METALLICA’s Lars Ulrich, former member of GUNS N' ROSES’ Slash, ANTHRAX' Scott Ian, and SLAYER’s Tom Araya, among others.

Anvil! The Story of Anvil, currently playing in theaters, is distributed by VH1 in association with Abramorama. This fall, VH1 will release the film on television and DVD under its Emmy Award-winning VH1 Rock Docs franchise.
