WE INVENTED THE FUTURE. SORRY.

The story of BUZZ, an avant-garde, genre-defying MTV magazine series hosted by RuPaul from the early 1990s that fused music, art and experimental media. Through archival footage and interviews, the film traces how a short-lived show anticipated the interactive, internet-driven media landscape we live in today.

A portrait of a briefly lived, wildly ahead-of-its-time MTV experiment, told as a punk-rock story of youthful invention, independence and a future the show predicted before it was erased and forgotten. From Mark Pellington, who co-created the original BUZZ series, and went on to direct dozens of iconic music videos for Michael Jackson, U2, Nine Inch Nails, Public Enemy, and more; in addition to cult hits like The Motherman Prophecies, Arlington Road, and I Melt with You. World Premiere at Slamdance 2026.
