An "honest film portrait" of 1990's biggest boy band, the Backstreet Boys. Charts their career from being founded/funded by Florida impresario (and convicted felon) Lou Pearlman, to the writing and recording of their 2013 album In a World Like This. The album coincides with a 20th anniversary and reunion, but dynamic shifts reveal new and old tensions that need confronting and resolving.

Total Film"A film that only fans who are seriously overinvested in that once formidable boy band could love."
—
The New York Times
The New York Times"Its tale of broken friendships, rickety knees, backstabbing managers and independently funded, acoustic-lead latterday albums should act as a warning to any up-and-coming boyband."
—
The Guardian
The Guardian"Even if it doesn't answer McLean's essential question of what men do after life as a boy band, the carefully crafted film is an engaging look at how they got to here."
