Aquarius, the waiter at the Why Are We Here Café, is trying to understand life's mysteries and his destiny
in life. Each day on his way to work, he walks through Bethel's Woodstock forest, singing and playing a renaissance
flute. This is the same land where the renowned Woodstock Festival was held years before. Today a forest, trees have been planted to celebrate
its memory. The mysterious natural echo there carries his music throughout, which is how Miriam finds him.
Miriam Hartman is the daughter of the richest man in town and a 26 year old teacher at Bethel High School, located on the
other side of the forest. Wealthy Peter Ost, head of the math department is rushing her into marriage. Aquarius and
Miriam meet in the forest a week before her engagement party. Unbeknownst to him, he has been hired to play the flute at her
party and by that time, their chemistry has evolved.
Michael Hartman, Miriam's father, has been asked to speak at the upcoming High School graduation. A
dramatic history of past events has an opportunity to be resolved. Thirty years earlier, after his wife was killed
in a freak accident at the Festival, he went on a rampage, using his wealth to ban all forms of live rock
and electronic music in Bethel. Thus began the Age of Control.
Somehow, the spirit of rock and roll is still alive in Woodstock forest, and Aquarius becomes its messenger...
