Mot Bleu - Stories from a Local Music Scene

It's the early 1990s. A Journalism graduate from New York is transported to the great plains of the Midwest for his first job. After two years of churning out sports data while making heroes of local athletes and champions of industry, he meets Tom - an aging relic from a time of psychedelic drugs, expanding consciousness and social upheaval. Tom publishes Mot Bleu, a local magazine that covers a hidden yet brilliant local music scene, struggling to be heard amid the clamor of the city. After a fall out with his overly conservative editor, the young reporter embarks on a short but epic journey into the hearts and minds of unknown local musicians striving to make sense of their world, express their unique views of life, and drum up emotion somewhere in the streets of industrialized civilization. This is a tale of joining the "real world" while squeezing out some kind of meaning for life.
