The Suburbans
Never before has a girl done so much with so little.
Directed by Donal Lardner Ward
Produced by TriStar Pictures, Motion Picture Corporation of America
A warm, playful comedy about aging musicians confronting the gap between youthful ambition and adult contentment, anchored by nostalgia for '80s new wave culture.
The Suburbans, a one-hit-wonder new wave band from the '80s, reunite at their bassist's wedding, where a promising young record executive sees the ensemble perform. When she encourages them to launch a revival, the group must weigh their dreams of fame and fortune against the reality of their relatively quiet domestic lives.
