Film Description:
"We Forgot to Break Up is a heartwarming and fiercely authentic story of music, love, and friendship in the early 2000s indie music scene. In the vibrant bar scene of Toronto, a diverse group of musicians come together to form a band with a mission: ignite a musical revolution. As they channel their struggles and experiences into their music, The New Normals create a dynamic rock sound, transcending gender and orientation and captivating a changing world. But as they rise to fame, personal and romantic entanglements complicate their journey. We Forgot to Break Up is a who's-who of Canadian music, featuring songs from Stars co-lead singer/songwriter Torquil Campbell, Peaches, Gentleman Reg and The Hidden Cameras."
