In the autumn of 2000, Wilco entered the studio to record a highly anticipated fourth album. How was it that merely one year later that, with completed record in hand, the band found itself rejected by its corporate label and missing two of its members?

First time filmmaker and award-winning photographer Sam Jones was on hand to chronicle this turbulent chapter in Wilco's history as it unfolded. Throughout the film, Jones tempers the backstage drama and unfathomable corporate shenanigans with inspired live performances, rivetingly shot in black and white.
