An emotionally open and honestfilm portrait of the biggest boy band ever, THE BACKSTREET BOYS, who take us through the highs and lows from boyhood to manhood that led them back into a London studio in 2012 to write a new album, make a film and plan their 20th anniversary re-launch. The reunion renewed friendships, but dynamic shifts reveal new and old tensions that need confronting and resolving. Directed by Stephen Kijak(Stones in Exile, Scott Walker: 30 Century Man) this is a surprising and rewarding journey filmed over 2 years that delves into the extremes of fame/fortune, betrayal and renewal. The cinema event includes a special acoustic set by the band filmed at the Dominion Theatre, London on 26 February. Performing live the band sang 5 favourite tracks: I Want It That Way, As Long As You Love Me, Shape Of My Heart, Show ‘Em(What You’re Made Of)and In A World Like Thisin front of 2,000 ecstatic fans.
