Flipside is a 2023 feature documentary film directed by Chris Wilcha.[5]

The film is a semi-sequel to The Target Shoots First [es][6] his 1999 72-minute documentary CalArts MFA thesis film[7] about his work at Columbia House record club.[7] that was a winner at Slamdance Film Festival for best documentary feature and best editing.[8][9][10]

"When filmmaker Chris Wilcha revisits the record store he worked at as a teenager in New Jersey, he finds the once-thriving bastion of music and weirdness from his youth slowly falling apart and out of touch with the times. FLIPSIDE documents his tragicomic attempt to revive the store while revisiting other documentary projects he has abandoned over the years...."[11] IFC Center
