The moon landing and the Vietnam War were not the big events for Torbjörn Carlén as a young boy in Mariestad in the late 1960s. What changed Torbjörn's life was the pop group Hep Star's breakthrough and a life-threatening brain tumor. Torbjörn has now passed 50 years, but his burning interest in pop music is still there. A film about friendship, music and never giving up on your dreams.
