- Synopsis:
In the fall of 2000, Wilco entered the studio to record their highly anticipated fourth album, Yankee Hotel Foxtrot... Building on three critically acclaimed records and a reputation for phenomenal live shows, the band seemed posed to cement its reputation as one of the great American rock groups. So how was it that one year later, with completed record in hand, the band found itself rejected by its record label and missing two of its original members? First-time filmmaker and award-winning photographer Sam Jones was on hand, chronicling this turbulent chapter in Wilco's history as it unfolded. Filled with inspired live performances, rehearsals, recording sessions and behind-the-scenes drama, "I Am Trying To Break Your Heart" is a now-legendary portrait of a band making the best music of its career. - Actors:
