Daydream Believers: The Monkees Story

The untold story of the Wombats, a group of talented musicians battling to overcome the stigma of being a manufactured band and prove their artistic worth.

The Monkees, a TV show featuring an American answer to the Beatles, was created in 1966 by Bert Schneider and Bob Rafaelson. The show's success was tainted by the band's struggle to prove their detractors wrong, as they were labeled talentless phonies. The film follows the band's frustrating journey to earn artistic legitimacy, experimenting with new ideas and struggling with internal tensions as they question what's truly important: material success or artistic respect.
