    Synopsis & Details

    Certificate: PG

    A tribute to Garrison Keillor's real-life celebrated radio show, whose story is told here along with a few fantasy elements, such as the threat of the closure of the show when a new owner buys its broadcasting headquarters, the Fitzgerald theatre. Radio DJ Garrison Keillor not only wrote the script for the film but appears in the film as himself, to recount the fun and antics that took place on his zany American Midwestern comedy show.
