“Novem”

 

In 1973, nine college students spent an amazing week camping out and recording music at a remote studio location.  They each write a composition and collaborate on each other’s songs during six days and nights of friendship, music, and fun.  By the end of the week, they have produced nine introspective songs that preserve their mood, hopes, and fears for generations.  The music they recorded disappears and remains silent for over thirty years until a college student at a garage sale accidentally purchases it.  NOVEM’s music and story spread quickly over the Internet to college campuses across the country.  This Brad Kimmel film documents this student’s quest to answer the question that everyone is starting to ask: “What happened to these guys?”
