A group of friends recall their past as Ramone fans. Private memoirs, privileged relationships with the band, tales of how they came to unconditionally love The Ramones as escapism from the oppressive cloak of progressive music and disco. Punk is the road to salvation from the boredom and banality of everyday life, an aggregate for a new family where all its members are stripped of their last name to take on that of Ramone. Footage of home movies filmed by our protaganists and Marky Ramone alternate with scenes and statements of total devotion to what is perhaps one of the most seminal bands. Guest star is Marky Ramone himself, the group’s drummer, surviving the blight of his fellow travellers, actively participating with his blessed presence. He is the spiritual father of this ramshackle but fortunate Holy Family.
