What is the name of the documentary film about Radiohead's album "OK Computer"?

The story behind the answer

The documentary film about Radiohead’s album “OK Computer” is Meeting People Is Easy.

Directed by Grant Gee, the 1998 British documentary follows Radiohead during the worldwide tour supporting their third studio album, released in 1997. Rather than presenting touring as glamorous, the film emphasizes exhaustion, media pressure, repetitive interviews, and the emotional strain of sudden international fame.

The documentary includes performances, backstage footage, promotional appearances, recording-related material, and scenes connected with music videos such as “No Surprises.” Its title reflects the film’s uneasy look at the band’s relationship with journalists and audiences.

A common mix-up is treating it as a conventional album-making documentary. Meeting People Is Easy is primarily a tour and aftermath film, while OK Computer itself is the album being promoted. It was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Music Film in 2000.
