Synopsis:

When enigmatic Tool, Puscifier and A Perfect Circle front man Maynard James Keenan took a leave of absence for a sleepy Arizona ghost town and teamed up with formidable winemaking partner Eric Glomski to pioneer a sustainable wine industry in the harsh climates of the Arizona desert, a lot of people chalked it up to a midlife crisis minus the sports car or the case of a celebrity with more money than sense. What they didn't realise was just how serious this rocker was about meeting this challenge with his usual hands-on approach. With winemaking in his blood and his mentor by his side, the next chapter in this unexpected winemaker's life began, as did the efforts of Keenan and Glomski to develop a world-class vineyard in the most unlikely of places. Featuring exclusive Puscifier concert footage as well as special appearances by Milla Jovovich, Patton Oswalt and Bob Odenkirk, this perceptive film offers a crackling blend of insightful anecdotes, behind-the-scenes secrets, erudite and controversial opinions, a sharp sense of humour and of course wall-to-wall wine!

When Maynard James Keenan (enigmatic Tool, A Perfect Circle & Puscifer frontman) fled Los Angeles for a sleepy Arizona ghost town and teamed up with formidable winemaking partner Eric Glomski to pioneer a sustainable wine industry in the harsh climates of the Arizona desert, a lot of people chalked it up to a celebrity with more money than sense. What they didn't realize was just how serious this rocker was about meeting this challenge with his usual hands-on approach. With winemaking in his blood and his mentor by his side, the next chapter in this unexpected winemaker's life began, as did the efforts of Keenan and Glomski to develop a world-class vineyard in the most unlikely of places. This perceptive documentary offers a unique blend of master storytelling and breathtaking scenery, all while maintaining a comedic edge with appearances by Milla Jovavich, Patton Oswalt, Tim & Eric (Tim & Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!) and Bob Odenkirk.

Music fans know Maynard James Keenan as the frontman of such bands as Tool, A Perfect Circle, and Puscifer, but in this documentary filmmakers Christopher Pomerenke and Ryan Page offer a closer look at one of the prolific rocker's more unexpected hobbies - winemaking. Along with his business partner Eric Glomski, Keenan has managed to transform an arid stretch of Arizona desert into a lush vineyard that yields some particularly tasty grapes. Through unguarded conversations with Keenan and Glomski, Pomerenke and Page discover just what got the pair interested in winemaking, and why they chose such a hostile natural environment to serve as the site of their winery.
