If These Walls Could Rock is the untold story of the Sunset Marquis—the legendary West Hollywood hideaway where rock stars checked in, passed out, and made history. Featuring a Hall of Fame lineup including Ringo Starr, Slash, Cyndi Lauper, Morrissey, and Dave Grohl, the film dives deep into the debauchery, the music, and the magic that made the Marquis the heartbeat of rock 'n roll for over six decades.


Co-director Tyler Measom is an SF DocFest alumni: An Honest Liar: The Amazing Randi Story (2014) and.I Want My MTV (2019)
