For two years filmmakers followed members of the 501st's Midwest Garrison to investigate why people say they are "Bad Guys Doing Good". These Star Wars costumers may be big kids at heart, but through their fandom, they go above an beyond for those who not only love Star Wars, but those who also need a little help. Through hospital visits, charity events, a musical number with "Weird Al", and many more excursions, you'll see how these "nerds dressing up as plastic spacemen" are able to bring joy, while wiping tears away from the cheeks of those who need it most.
