An underground saga that weaves the Boston Music scene into a semi-operatic, neo-realistic love/hate struggle. Dan, (Dan Vitale of Bim Skala Bim and Steady Earnest) is a poor, down-on-his-luck singer/activist spurned by his girlfriend Karen (Karen Moskow.)
The star-crossed couple battle it out over many difficult issues like dominance, quality time, and the price of true artistic expression. Karen's father, Police Sgt. James Goldman, (Mr.Jimmy Miller- rockstar producer of The Rolling Stones, Traffic, Blind Faith, and Motorhead) has never liked Dan or the idea that he has dated his daughter for the last three years. Tempers begin to boil as Karen's new boyfriend Matt, (Ted Vitale, WHAT Theatre Wellfleet, MA) and the Goldmans realize that Dan may have something to do with Karen's untimely disapearance, and the search is on. The awesome punk/ska and reggae soundtrack features performances and music from many of Boston's most popular bands: Bim Skala Bim at Fort Apache Studio, The Mighty Mighty Bosstones at TT The Bears Place, Dogzilla at The Paradise, Human Nature at the (now defunct) Channel Club, Steady Earnest and many more!

--- Technical Note Regarding Picture and Sound Quality ---
During the early 1990s this movie was originally shot on 16mm film and the sound was recorded separately on a Nagra reel-to-reel. The 16mm film and sound was synced and telecined to U-Matic 3/4" videotape and edited in a linear fashion using an A-B Roll edit suite. The finished Master U-Matic 3/4" tape was dubbed to an old, used VHS tape which became the last surviving copy of the film. Finally it was located in a storage facility and dusted off and in 2013 the VHS tape was digitized and edited and enhanced digitally with Final Cut Pro. For everyone involved, making this film has been a labor of love.
