Director Nicolas Jack Davies charts the intimate, artistic and personal relationship between Omar Rodriguez-López and Cedric Bixler-Zavala (At the Drive-In/The Mars Volta).“If this ever gets weird, promise me we can just stop, as nothing is more important than loving you.” These were the words of Omar Rodríguez-López to his childhood friend Cedric Bixler-Zavala in January 2000, on the eve of recording a breakthrough album that would change their lives forever.
For a decade they stayed true to this pact, until it was spectacularly broken in a haze of deception, Scientology, death and betrayal. The friends then spent the following ten years trying to heal those wounds.
Told almost entirely through hundreds of hours of intimate footage filmed by Omar Rodríguez-López over the last 40 years, the documentary charts the duo’s intense and profound journey of friendship, brotherhood, love, fame, self-discovery, and sacrifice.
