This sat in my queue for quite some time before I got around to watching it, knowing nothing more about it than the basic summary provided. I generally enjoy movies like this, the "Hearts Beat Loud" or "Crazy Heart" type of movies that use music to bring a troubled soul to redemption.
I was not at all prepared for the twist in this movie, it's fairly significant. It's the nice thing about not really knowing too much about a movie before you watch it because you watch this movie for the first 2/3rds of it thinking you know why this man is so depressed and asking yourself why he had gone to such extremes - then they hit you with it and you are like "wow, I did not see that coming".
I'm not going to spoil this part for you because it's a big deal (and not even hide it under a spoilers blur because that's just too tempting to click on) but suffice to say that it's quite a shock and will make you question how you feel about the people in this movie immediately. It's a story that hasn't really ever been told and it is interesting to see it from another viewpoint.
The music is really quite good. It's all kind of indie/alt stuff and excellent.
