From the streets of Toronto to the heart of the American musical landscape, "Once Were Brothers: Robbie Robertson and the Band" is a raw and riveting documentary portrait of one of music's most influential groups. Directed by Daniel Roher and produced by Martin Scorsese, the film is anchored by the candid, reflective voice of its guitarist and primary songwriter, Robbie Robertson, who recounts the group's incredible journey. Through a rich tapestry of archival footage and intimate interviews with icons like Bruce Springsteen, Eric Clapton, and Van Morrison, the story unfolds of five musicians who found a profound brotherhood and forged a timeless sound that captivated the world. The documentary delves into the exhilarating highs of creative triumph and the crushing personal pressures that threatened to tear the band apart, painting an emotional and honest look at the cost of genius and the fragile nature of artistic collaboration.
