Unauthorized Live Recording

Their music could be fatal, but their legacy lives on.

Mia Dermott documents the stories of surviving in the back room of a record store, seeking a connection to the father she never got a chance to know. Her latest interviewee recounts a story of the band’s first gig, and the surprisingly legacy that her father left behind: the sole bootleg of the four-piece’s gigs that actually registered their music.

It’s a tape Mia needs to find if she ever wants to understand why her father chose to die. And a tape the obsessed fans would kill to hear, if only they knew where to find it.
