THE NEW MUSIC - A story about Parkinsons, Punk & Friendship

Classically trained pianist Adrian (Cillein Mc Evoy) has a promising career ahead of him, all to be taken away after a Young Onset Parkinson's disease diagnosis. Overwhelmed by fear and denial, he runs away from the control of his up-tight family, destination Dublin, where he embarks on a path of self-discovery leading him to the punk band The Cellmates, who are everything but up-tight. Their rebellious lifestyle and punchy music provide an exciting and lively distraction and contrast to his previous life.
