A documentary over two years in the making, filled with interviews, clips, beats, and behind–the–scenes footage about the past, present, and future of the band. Where are they now? Will they continue to perform? Will they record again? Questions fresh in mind, camera firmly in hand, Michael Rapaport starts off at Rock The Bells 2008, which was widely viewed at the group’s farewell tour. That’s where our odyssey begins.
We'll soon be talking about where we are in the edit.
