Grammy Award-winner and rock legend Bob Dylan stars in this hard-driving "A Star is Born"-like, music-infused film about a striving musician (real-life pop star Fiona) drawn into the raw-edged lifestyle of fast-lane rock 'n roll -- and torn between two men and the different ways of life they represent. Written by Joe Eszterhas ("Basic Instinct," "Flashdance") and co-starring Golden Globe-nominee Rupert Everett ("My Best Friends Wedding"), this features appearances by Ron Wood (The Rolling Stones), Richie Havens, Ian Dury and Terry Williams (Dire Straits), with rockin' soundtrack written by Dylan, Neil Young and John Fogerty.

The rebels who started the civil war in Sierra Leone 15 years ago wanted only one thing: to reclaim the richness of the country from foreign corporations in order to end the exploitation of its people. In response, the international community decided to wage a war on this country, with bombs, executions, torture, rigged elections and manipulation of the international media. This created one of the worst humanitarian disasters of the 20th century.
