In 2002, George Roca produced and directed a concert film about the band titled Nobody Knows How to Talk to Children . It chronicles the White Stripes’ four-night stand at New York City’s Bowery Ballroom in 2002, and contains live performances and behind-the-scenes footage. Its 2004 release was suppressed by the band’s management, however, after they discovered that Roca had been showing it at the Seattle Film Festival without permission. According to the band, the film was “not up to the standards our fans have come to expect”; even so, it remains a highly prized bootleg . Also in 2002, they appeared as musical guests on Saturday Night Live .
