After a punk rock band steals some stuff from the Catholic Church are forced to help a musically gifted street kid make a record for the local christian label
btw, I don't mean to imply this isn't a good idea for a film, I'm just saying the motivation is flawed. For instance: ----- "After their drunken singer crashes into a school bus, a punk band is force into community service helping a community christian label create an album for a gifted street kid."Read more

Forcing characters to do the last thing they would want to do does make for good conflict.
Hope that helped, good luck with this!

Same with Metal. I believe it was Nikki Sixx of Motley Crue who said, The only thing that could hurt their image would be if someone captured a photo of them drinking a glass of milk.
