added: Wed, Apr 11th '18

Parks and Rec's Nick Offerman forms an indie rock band with his teenage daughter (Dope's Kiersey Clemons) in the newly-released trailer for the feel-good dramedy "Hearts Beat Loud."

The indie musical film, directed by Brett Haley (The Hero, I'll See You in My Dreams), centers on the close relationship between a Brooklyn vinyl record store owner and his college-bound daughter.

While struggling with the idea of being an empty-nester, cool-dad Frank (Offerman) has decided to spend more quality time with his daughter, Sam (Clemons), who is expected to head off to college next fall. But after turning one of their weekly jam sessions into a downloadable recording, Frank and Sam are shocked to discover that a song they created and recorded together in their living room has suddenly become a huge hit on the internet. Now Frank wants Sam to skip her college plans to live out her singing dreams and go on tour. The question is, does Sam really want to be in a two-person rock band with her Dad?

Co-starring Toni Collette, Ted Danson, Sasha Lane, and Blythe Danner, and co-written by Haley and his frequent writing partner Marc Basch, "Hearts Beat Loud," which premiered to strong reviews in January at the Sundance Film Festival, is receiving a theatrical release on June 8th.

synopsis:
In the hip Brooklyn neighborhood of Red Hook, single dad and record store owner Frank (Nick Offerman) is preparing to send his hard-working daughter Sam (Kiersey Clemons) off to college, while being forced to close his vintage shop.
