Dreamin’ Wild
Casey Affleck stars in this touching Sugaman-like drama set in Northwest in the 70s. Two teenage brothers embark on a lifelong risk-it-all quest to achieve recognition of their music. Rediscovered after thirty years of obscurity, the music child-prodigy and the family come to terms with the past and their newly found fame. Based on a true story of Donnie and Joe Emerson.
