In 1983, Lucy Kostelanetz filmed the band Miller, Miller, Miller & Sloan -- purveyors of white funk -- when the members were still in their teens and naively hopeful that they would "make it." The group developed a large and enthusiastic local following in New York City, including many of their Music & Art High School classmates (novelist Jonathan Lethem among them). The film captures that moment in time with scenes from rehearsals, home interviews, and performance and backstage footage at CBGB. In 1988, the director then went back to see what had happened to the band. Although they were still performing, the realities of earning a living were already starting to erode the dream. The group eventually dissolved, but Kostelanetz decided to reconnect with the former bandmates in 2007 to explore how all that time and work together had played out in their subsequent lives. Only one member of the group has continued to pursue music, but the others have incorporated the experience into their careers in surprising and interesting ways.
