Documentary about a real-life Philadelphia school of rock, headed by its founder and self-proclaimed "überlord" Paul Green. The film follows an entire season of classes. Directed by Don Argott. [1:33]

SEX/NUDITY 1 - A man talks about talking to young people on the subject of "when he lost his virginity." A woman's top is unzipped and reveals cleavage and men and boys are seen bare-chested.

VIOLENCE/GORE 3 - A man smacks a girl on the head. A man yells at a boy, smacks him in the head and throws him on the floor (they are play acting). A man with a plastic bat and a boy with drumsticks play fight.
► A man yells and berates children throughout the movie: he threatens to hit a girl (it's unclear whether he means it), and he says "I'm gonna kill your family and bathe in the blood" (this was evidently meant in jest). A man yells at young people and is very angry; he goes out into a hallway and kicks the wall. A man and a girl yell at each other (the girl ends up in tears).
► A boy talks about having attempted suicide by wrapping a vacuum cleaner cord around his neck and jumping off a flight of stairs. A boy talks about having been born by cesarean section because his head was too big for his mother's anatomy, and his umbilical cord was wrapped around his neck; also, that the size of his head led to brain damage (it's not clear whether this is true). We hear that a boy has emergency surgery because of a bone disorder.
► Two young men and a girl have a spitting contest.
