The wild popularity of boy bands in Hong Kong today is unquestionable, but if we flashback to the golden age of The Wynners and see how they rose to fame and succeeded throughout the decades—well, they may have been the one who sow the seeds of the whole boy band craze 50 years ago! Formed in 1973, The Wynners started out singing English pop songs which were not yet popular in the city at the time. Yet they soon made it a phenomenon and gained fame not only locally, but also in Southeast Asia. Seeing the enormous potential in these five young talents, the legendary James Wong wrote and directed this musical film for them, in which they starred with teen idols Candice Yu On-on and Chelsia Chan. It was the first time The Wynners sang Cantopop songs, which were originally scored for the film also by James Wong. As the film and the original soundtrack became a huge commercial smash, their popularity reached an unprecedented height. It is a dream-chasing and inspiring story of a group of young people aspiring to succeed in 1970s Hong Kong, both on and off screen.
