ALKALINE TRIO @ CBGB'S SCENE
CURRENTLY DEEP IN POST-PRODUCTION...
This is a film about flawed human beings trying to grow up. It is as much about loss and hindsight as it is about triumph and optimism. It is about music bringing people together, the joy of community, and the sadness of the realization that its not going to last forever.
As of this cut, The Freaks, Nerds, & Romantics is close to completion. We are awaiting music/performance releases so we can pick a final soundtrack, artwork for opening/ending credits, color correction, and any glitches which show up in this cut (fingers crossed!). If all goes according to plan, we will be able to release the final cut in early June.
Is it possible to have parties, dreams and freedom...and grow up at
the same time?
Long Island twenty-somethings Dean Bishoff (Michael Koscik) and Scott
Flynn (Sean King) are uncertain about the future of their band,
CON.SPIRE - for very different reasons. Their spirits dampened by the
plateau they have hit in their success, they realize they have two
options: push further or pull apart. Dean is inspired to press .. his close friend and muse Talia (Barri Kiem), finds success in her own band, Now Spit. But Scott is showing signs of wanting to branch out on his own.
Putting their predicament into perspective is Lucy Merrick (Jamie
Frevele), a long-time friend presented with the opportunity of a
lifetime, writing a feature article for a pop culture magazine.
Finding herself in the position of outside observer, Lucy makes her
friends the focus of the piece, chronicling their hardships as emerging
talents caught between free adolescence and responsible adulthood.
Featuring performances by the Bouncing Souls, Alkaline Trio, The Explosion, and a cameo by MTV2's Jim Shearer, "The Freaks, Nerds and Romantics" seeks
to shed light on the Twenty-Something Trap.
