Synopsis by Clarke Fountain
This is a music documentary about the Canadian music group, Offenbach, and their tour of France. Standard fare, the film shows them horsing around backstage and delivering the musical goods onstage. The main distinguishing feature of Tabernac is that it is one of the very first French "rockumentaries." Curiously, not everything in the movie is straightforward documentary: Faraldo weaves in some semi-fictionalized scenes with actors whom he hired to play policemen.
