A Mighty Wind is a 2003 American
mockumentary comedy-drama film about a
folk music reunion concert in which three folk bands reunite for a television performance for the first time in decades. The film was directed, co-written and composed by
Christopher Guest. The film is thought to reference the 2003 tribute concert to folk music producer
Harold Leventhal that reunited several of the folk groups that Leventhal had managed. More broadly, the film is a parody of the
American folk music revival of the early 1960s and its personalities.
