A feature documentary featuring Kenny Vance, founder of Jay and the Americans, who visits his heros, the legends of Doo Wop, who he saw as a kid perform in the 50’s and 60’s at the old Brooklyn Paramount. They hang out, they reminisce about the beginnings of Doo Wop, and they sing together in scenes that will make your heart skip a beat. Pookie Hudson, Little Anthony, Eugene Pitt, Cleveland Still – these are a few of the legends who we meet in Feelin’ No Pain. And woven throughout is the story of Kenny’s latest band, The Planotones. Started against all advice at 50 The Planotones is a group of middle aged singers who are re-living their teen dream to sing oldies to the cheers of audiences across America. The life of the Artinian family of Long Island was chronicled in the Academy Award nominated film Sound and Fury that came out in 2000. Sound and Fury: Six Years Later is another engaging look at this extraordinary family in the years since their first movie captured audiences around the world. Sound and Fury ended with 6-year-old Heather’s parents deciding not to implant her. In this stand-alone follow up film we learn that Heather’s parents changed their minds and she finally did get the implant at 9 years old, as did Heather’s 2 younger brothers, her mother, her deaf aunt and her 2 deaf cousins. The film follows Heather in her life today interacting fluidly between the hearing world of her school and the signing deaf world of her parents.
