Tip from Cineville: Umeå Filmfestival

In the early 2000s, the Norwegian band Hangface set off for Los Angeles to make it big in the music industry. With legendary producer Eddie Kramer, who had worked with the likes of Led Zeppelin, The Beatles and The Rolling Stones, within reach, their dream seemed closer than ever. A MiniDV camera follows five ambitious young men, convinced that the world will soon be at their feet.

Twenty years later, more than 500 hours of home video footage discovered in a basement in Louisiana become a time capsule of the dream of rock stardom – and of a breakthrough that always seems just around the corner.
