15-year-old high school student William Miller (Patrick Fugit) has
just won the chance to write a story about Stillwater, an
up-and-coming rock band, for Rolling Stone magazine. So he joins
the band on tour, makes friends with lead guitarist Russell Hammond
(Billy Crudup) and groupie Penny Lane (Kate Hudson), and gets
himself a ringside seat for some classic 1970s rock excesses. But
with Rolling Stone demanding a story that could very well cause him
to betray his newfound friends, his over-protective mother (Frances
McDormand) keeping a regular check on him, and tensions within the
band reaching breaking point, William finds that he must tread very
carefully indeed.
