Detailed Information

Set in 1973, it chronicles the funny and often poignant coming of age of 15-year-old music fanatic, William. Having managed to land an assignment from Rolling Stone magazine to interview the up-and-coming band Stillwater - fronted by lead guitarist Russell Hammond - and with the help of gorgeous "band aid" Penny Lane, William finds himself drawn into the band's inner circle, despite the objections of his over protective mother (an Oscar nominated Frances McDormand). As he becomes less of an observer and more a participant in the band's dynamics, William learns a life-changing lesson about the importance of family - the ones we inherit and the ones we create.
