A darkly comedic mockumentary following a punk band's desperate reunion tour, balancing anarchic humor with the melancholy of aging musicians clinging to past glory.

Bruce Macdonald follows punk bank Hard Core Logo on a harrowing last-gasp reunion tour throughout Western Canada. As magnetic lead-singer Joe Dick holds the whole magilla together through sheer force of will, all the tensions and pitfalls of life on the road come bubbling to the surface.
