Film of the Rolling Stones' 1981 U.S. tour. The tenth tour of the Rolling Stones and one of the most ambitious musical presentations of all time, Let's Spend the Night Together, began on September 25, 1981, at the JFK Stadium in Philadelphia, and ended on December 19 in the Hampton Coliseum. Mick Jagger, Keith Richard, Ron Wood, Bill Wyman and Charlie Waters viewed by an audience of more than 90,000 fans per show. In total, more than two million people witnessed their success. Managed by the experienced Hal Ashby (Coming Home), the Stones hired him exclusively to document every second of their presentations. The result is one of the most spectacular musical concerts of all time, inspiring the megashows made in stadiums nowadays. Unprecedented in Brazil, this DVD shows the Stones' lavish musicality and songs that redefined the whole concept of rock and roll.

Harold wird von seiner ach so fortschrittlichen und nicht weniger reichen Mutter sachlich und lieblos wie ein Gegenstand behandelt. Deshalb ist "Sterben" sein Hobby, "Selbstmord" seine Lieblingsbeschäftigung und der Besuch von Beerdigungen sein Zeitvertreib. Weder der Psychiater noch der Onkel, Offizier und (amputierte) "rechte Hand von General MacArthur", finden Zugang zu dem verschlossenen jungen Menschen. Da trifft er bei seinen Beerdigungsbesuchen auf Maude, eine lebenslustige 80-jährige Frau, und schliesst auf seltsame Art mit ihr Freundschaft. Maude weckt in Harold alle Fröhlichkeit, Lebensfreude und Phantasie, die bis dahin nicht erwachen konnte, zugedeckt durch die Verständnislosigkeit seiner Umwelt. Harold fasst tiefe Liebe und Bewunderung zu der skurrilen alten Dame, die mit allen Menschen sprechen kann, sich nicht fürchtet - weder vor Staatsgewalt noch sich selber zu sein.
