Fresh out of college, 23-year-old Cole Carter and his friends Mason, Ollie and Squirrel are determined to make something of their futures, with young people being faced with more and more career opportunities than ever before. Cole wants to become one of the world's top DJs, but hitting the decks at local college parties aren't getting him anywhere fast. He learns the art of getting people moving with his music from a more experienced DJ named James who sees potential in him, but it seems the more he is taught, the more he realises he has to learn. Still, he's reluctant to work under James, and things get complicated when he starts to bond with James' girlfriend Sophie. To make matters worse, his friends are becoming increasingly frustrated with him for refusing to seize a once in a lifetime opportunity to make something really special.

'We Are Your Friends' is a music drama exploring the very real difficulties that young people face when they set out to achieve their dreams. It has been directed by Max Joseph ('12 Years of DFA'), who co-wrote the screenplay alongside Meaghan Oppenheimer ('LoveFinder') and it is scheduled for release in the US on August 28th 2015.
