What it’s about. Die Jugend des amerikanischen Provinznests Mill Basin fiebert dem viertägigen Rockspektakel mit dem Auftritt der Heavy-Metal-Band "Black Roses" entgegen. Beim ersten Sound aus der Megawatt-Anlage sind alle wie elektrisiert und als Damien zum Mikrofon greift ist buchstäblich die Hölle los. Die teuflischen Klänge wirken wie eine Droge. Die total entfesselte Jugend gerät außer Rand und Band und schreckt vor nichts zurück.
