| Short summary |
Tor Heine has played in the band Merkesteinane for 14 years, but now he hopes to make his greatest dream come true. He wants to become a true rock star and release his own solo album!
His vision meets resistance from the other, more down to earth band members. The bass player Arild is in many ways Tor Heine’s opposite, and they often have heated discussions. In stark contrast to Tor Heine, Arild thinks it’s the musicians behind the instruments, not the stage fireworks, that count in the end. |
