Elvis Lives!

Marcel Visbeen | Netherlands | 1997 | 9' | | IFFR 1998

Exactly fifteen years after Elvis gave up the ghost in Graceland, an Elvis impersonator is about to start on an historic performance. He comes closer to the real King of Rock ‘n Roll than he could ever dream, partly thanks to a strange role by the new ‘King of Pop’.
