About Song One:

Song One is a romantic drama set against the backdrop of Brooklyn’s vibrant indie music scene. After Franny’s (Anne Hathaway) musician brother Henry (Ben Rosenfield) is injured and hospitalized in a coma following the car accident, Franny returns home after a long estrangement and begins to use his notebook as a guide to how his life has evolved in her absence. Franny seeks out the musicians and artists Henry loved, in the course of journey meeting James Forester (Johnny Flynn), his musical idol, whose success and fame belie a shy and private man. As a romantic connection develops between Franny and James, the question becomes if love can bloom even under the most adverse circumstances. The film, produced by Joanthan Demme, also stars Oscar® winner Mary Steenburgen (The Help) and features original music composed by Jenny Lewis and Johnathan Rice.
