A chronicle which follows alternative-country-turned-rock-band Wilco's recording of their fouth album, "Yankee Hotel Foxtrot" (the album was released to critical acclaim by Nonesuch Records). Initally intended to follow the collaborative process of this handful of very creative artists making a highly anticipated album, director Sam Jones soon had unexpected human drama and corporate intrigue to contend with when the band started breaking apart and their now-acclaimed new album was rejected by their label, Reprise Records.
