In 2010, the members of the National were about to embark on the biggest tour of their career. After 10 years as a band and five critically acclaimed albums, they were finally enjoying wider recognition. Lead singer Matt Berninger invited his younger brother, Tom, to join the tour's crew. A budding horror filmmaker, Tom -- who is nine years younger than Matt and listens exclusively to heavy metal -- decided to bring his camera along. Tom's at sea in the world of indie rock, and living in his brother's shadow brings out the younger sibling in him -- he drinks, complains, and struggles to balance his ambition with his tour responsibilities. The result is a film about maintaining a brotherly relationship while making something of your own. The AV Club writes: "'Mistaken for Strangers' is as much a film about its director as it is about the National, which may qualify it as an entirely new kind of rock doc. But the film quickly seems like less of a lark or meta-commentary on music documentaries and more of a sketch of an odd-but-close brotherly bond."
