Synopsis "The Band After Tomorrow"

It was a long time ago that Chris and Abby stood nervously in the run-down room of the "Hotel Excelsior" in Zurich, fearing for the success of their first show. Twenty years have passed since then. The band has celebrated great successes and have established themselves as the ever-drinking, aggressive bullies of the rock'n'roll scene. When they are interviewed in the same hotel room on the occasion of their new album, their image is shaken. Now the band members’ true selves are revealed. They turn out to be normal people who simply no longer have the desire or energy to live the rock'n'roll lifestyle. But what would the fans say about this change?
