The Rocker

Cert: 12A

Description: Rising student band A.D.D. loses its drummer on the eve of the high school prom. Singer-songwriter Curtis and bassist Amelia resign themselves to cancelling the gig but keyboard player Matt has a solution: recruit his slobbish uncle, Robert "Fish" Fishman, one-time drummer of rock supergods Vesuvius, who was famously kicked out of the band and has been in an emotional tailspin ever since. Fish eagerly picks up his sticks and A.D.D. quickly gains popularity, propelling the band members into the spotlight.
