Summary
Director of the movie Schultz explains the difficulty of conveying the story without dialogue but relying only on music and pantomime. There is no proper interview either with Martin or Brown, nor are they identified by name in brief conversations unrelated to the movie. During the press conference, questions pertaining to the many aspects of the movie's production are asked by the media reporters and are answered by the various creators of the film. Not all the questions and answers are audible. Bee Gees (brothers Barry and Maurice Gibb who perform in the film) talk about the beginning of their career and the influence of the Beatles and analyze their music. They speak about their recording business and then switch to a discussion of the production of the film, a joint effort of the director, screenwriter, performers etc.
