In 2024, the eleven (!) members of the iconic mid-90’s cult comedy troupe The State reunited for a live tour. With their irreverent and absurdist live sketches as the backdrop, and framed with a greatest-hits playlist of classic material, the group’s unreasonably talented stars sit down to share the behind-the-scenes story of The State’s meteoric rise and lasting influence- in typically hilarious fashion.
Directed by Matthew Perniciaro

Long Live the State
This story is awesome and everyone is super charming, but the edit is really really poor. It takes away from the movie and the story so much. The pacing is clunky, the thruline is mysterious, but man everyone is so fun to watch. I hope that after tribeca the edit will be improved, because there’s gold in this!
