In 2002, Fleetwood Mac went into the studio for the first time in 15 years to create the album Say You Will, and the cameras rolled on a documentary following the process...Destiny Rules...
Set after "The Dance", as Lindsey Buckingham has just spent 5 years creating the family that Stevie Nicks insisted he do at the end of the tour when a baby that wasn't hers was on the way, "Destiny Rules" is the story of Stevie and Lindsey finding their way back to each other during the Say You Will era of the early 2000s...
"It's just like a river; it's never ending. I cannot pretend that the heartache falls away."
