A Mighty Wind

The life of Irving Steinbloom, a renowned folk music producer, comes to a close. His children, Jonathan, Naomi, and Elliott, are left to grapple with their loss and his lasting impact on the music world.

Motivated by their father's legacy, Jonathan, Naomi, and Elliott decide to organize a memorial concert. Their goal is to celebrate Irving's life through the reunion of his cherished musical acts.

The Folksmen, consisting of Mark Shubb, Alan Barrows, and Jerry Palter, come together for the first time in years. As they rehearse their classic hit, 'Old Joe's Place,' nostalgia sets in, igniting both joy and minor tensions.

While preparing for the concert, The Folksmen face a conflict about their poignant song, 'Skeletons of Quinto.' Despite their disagreements, their enduring chemistry shines through as they reconnect over shared memories.

A new generation of folk musicians emerges with The New Main Street Singers, led by the last founding member, George Menschell. Their unique style, called 'neuftet', adds a contemporary twist to their classic sound.

Ex-partners Mitch Cohen and Mickey Crabbe prepare to perform together for the first time in years. Their complicated history, including the heartbreak of their past, brings tension and unresolved feelings to the surface.

As the three musical groups rehearse for their televised performance at The Town Hall in New York, they share candid interviews. These moments reveal personal struggles and the challenges they've faced after years of fame.

The night of the concert arrives, filled with anticipation and excitement. Each group prepares to showcase their talents and honor Irving Steinbloom's legacy amidst the electric atmosphere.

As the New Main Street Singers begin their set with 'Never Did No Wanderin',' The Folksmen unexpectedly follow with their own rendition. This moment creates a surge of competition and intensity on stage.

Just before taking the stage with Mickey, Mitch disappears to fetch a rose for her. This touching gesture symbolizes their unresolved feelings as they prepare to perform their iconic song, 'A Kiss at the End of the Rainbow.'

Mitch and Mickey finally perform 'A Kiss at the End of the Rainbow,' and the moment is loaded with emotional tension. After a prolonged pause, they share the long-awaited kiss, reuniting old feelings from their past.

The concert culminates with a powerful performance of 'A Mighty Wind' featuring all three groups. This finale celebrates the unifying power of music and pays tribute to Irving Steinbloom's legacy.

Six months post-concert, the artists come together for interviews. They reflect on their lives and careers, revealing new paths and pursuits, especially Mickey's venture into promoting medical products.

Mitch shares that he is experiencing a revival of his poetic creativity, claiming to have moved beyond his past with Mickey. Still, he grapples with lingering emotions and the fear of igniting old affections.

George Menschell's group engages in new endeavors, with their manager LaFontaine developing a sitcom titled 'Supreme Folk.' This show blends their musical talents with comedic aspirations as they balance their dual identities.
