Steve Aoki Will Sleep When He’s Dead

In a special Tribeca Film Festival screening, director Justin Krook presents his fast paced bio-doc about one of the most prolific DJs working today: Steve Aoki. In “Steve Aoki: I’ll Sleep When I’m Dead,” Krook examines the passion and drive that motivate the DJ as he prepares for one of the biggest shows of his career. Chief among the influences on Aoki, the audience learns, is Rocky Aoki, a daredevil showman, Benihana restaurant tycoon, and Steve’s absent father. The film chronicles the younger Aoki’s journey from his college dorm days launching a music label to his headlining of some of the world’s largest music festivals. Beacon Theatre, 2124 Broadway at 75th St. Apr. 15, 8 p.m. Tickets are $35-$75 at beacontheatre.com. Aoki will appear for a post-screening performance.
