What happens
Slouching Towards Branson is a 2025 American comedy special and concert film written and performed by alternative musician Will Wood. The film serves as a chronicle of Wood's return to performing after a multi-year hiatus, framing live sets from his "Slouching Towards Bethlehem" tour within a semi-fictionalized narrative. The title of the special is a direct parody of Joan Didion's 1968 essay "Slouching Towards Bethlehem", a literary allusion Wood references throughout. It originally premiered as a digital exclusive on Wood's Patreon platform on August 15, 2025, followed by a live audio soundtrack release to streaming platforms on December 24, 2025. A wider commercial DVD roll-out via Hostile City Distribution and MVD Entertainment Group is scheduled to be released on August 7, 2026. Upon release, the film received mostly positive reviews from critics. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
