Experiencing Interruptions?

The Torch of Rock and Roll

The Torch Of Rock And Roll tells the real-life story of a boy who happened to fall in love with KISS, the dreams he had, and the will to make them come true to a point of eventually signing a management/record deal with his idol Paul Stanley. It’s also a story about the moment when a fiery heart realizes that all the ill-fated things its owner has gone through have just been a matter of synchronicity rather than fate. A truly recognition moment and the spark that lit his lifelong fire of purpose.

Director Biography - K-ROD

He's the most "half and half" person you'll ever meet. Half Japanese, half Mexican. Half businessman, half artist. Half tech, half nature. This makes a very interesting balance, which he reflects on in the work he does. Also, food. You've got to try his famous "Yam-chiladas".
