description
By day, the Patterson brothers operate a metal shop together, crafting beautiful pieces of heirloom iron-work. After hours, the blacksmiths turn their forge into a film set where they write, produce and perform in whimsical heavy metal music videos that reflect their philosophies on life and art. Their talent, energy and creativity are undeniable - but why, and for whom, do these middle-aged brothers do this? In this intimate exploration of art and family bonds, metal, in all forms, shines as a powerful tool in overcoming unconventional childhoods marked by a shared disability.
