Keady, who takes viewers through his personal history and connections to the world of music, working his way to the "Sons of Steel" production experience. Beginning his career in music production, Keady found his way to film, trying to score attention with the short "Knightmare," which was shown before screenings of "Dune" in 1985. Taking "Knightmare" everywhere, Keady was focused on crafting a feature, spending years putting some form of "Sons of Steel" together. Dealing with casting issues, union problems, and technical challenges, Keady managed to achieve his dream. However, compromise was encountered, and the helmer details many problems and hardships encountered along the way.
