For Your Entertainment

Could you choose between music or happiness?

 

Sick of being bullied by his so-called best friends, seventeen-year-old Sammy Tomasello breaks up his punk band Flipflop just as they are being courted by major record labels. All he wants is a normal life without practicing, touring, and being ridiculed by his bandmates. 

But “normal” life isn’t what Sammy expects. He’s overwhelmed by the attention — and resentment — at school while his mom, still mourning the death of Sammy’s father, struggles to get out of bed. Seeking refuge from his problems, Sammy gets a job at ShowBiz Pizza where cute co-worker Maggie discovers his musical talent and begs to jam with him. Sammy doesn’t want to lose her the same way he lost Flipflop, but the urge to create is hard to resist. Sammy finds himself having to choose between music and happiness or risk losing both the people and passions that complete his life.​​​
