Spoilers ahead
Troy Duffy, a bartender, musician, and aspiring screenwriter, orchestrates a career-altering breakthrough in 1997 after selling his script for The Boondock Saints to Miramax chief Harvey Weinstein for US$300,000, catching the attention of the William Morris Agency in the process. He is offered the extraordinary chance to direct the film with a US$15 million budget, while his band The Brood is lined up to produce the soundtrack and secure a recording deal with Maverick Records. Miramax even agrees to buy the Los Angeles bar J. Sloan’s where Duffy works and hire him to run it, turning his everyday surroundings into the nerve center of a Hollywood ascent. To document this ascent, he enlists friends Tony Montana and Mark Brian Smith to manage The Brood and capture the rollercoaster on film.
