Not What It Seems

Warning: Spoilers
Contains spoiler! I saw this movie and liked it a lot. Then I found out that the director took events and rearranged them out of order to make a happy ending. In the movie they show the band recording and trying to distribute their new CD which then results in the climactic concert in Japan at the end of the movie. The trouble is that things that happened in 2007 are shown as leading up to the concert, which actually happened in 2006. That isn't right in a documentary to change events around and manipulate the audience like that. It's really disappointing because I liked the band members who seemed like nice guys struggling to make a dream happen. I don't see why the director had to manipulate the story just so it'd come out the way he wanted. That just isn't right.
