The documentary opens with a brief history of the Silks and stories from their early years.  They began as normal school students who wrote a movie script for their high school reading class.  Although, their teacher gave the script a passing grade, it was ridiculed by fellow classmates.  Undeterred, the Silks took their script to Hollywood, where it is picked up by Sherman Sidney from DeadFly films and becomes a major blockbuster.  

However, all good things must come to and end.  As the Silks prepare to produce a second film, they vanish without a trace, leaving fans feeling empty and wondering what happened.

When the idea for Pure Silk came about, director Ryan Dixon collaborated with the Silk brothers, Scott and Tom to write a script.  They did.  However, Ryan choose to do a pseudo-documentary format.  He incorporated their real script as their hit movie "Pure Silk."

A special edition featuring new scenes and previously unreleased footage of the Silks was released in 1998.
