The Road to Ruane

Billy Ruane, storied impresario of the 90s Boston indie music scene.

V. Silvestrov

Highly respected by the world’s best music professionals, he remains a mystery for a wide audience. The documentary is far from a traditional biopic about a prominent person. It is an observation, a confession and, most of all, a story of great talent set against the backdrop of uncertain times.
