The film explores the world of aging punk rock musicians, as they transition into parenthood and try to maintain the contrast between their anti-authoritarian lifestyle with the responsibilities of fatherhood, the titular "other F word".

In addition to interviewing over twenty musicians[1] from across the spectrum of the punk genre, including Mark Hoppus of Blink 182 and Fat Mike of NOFX, the film also includes other emblematic figures of subculture such as professional skateboarder Tony Hawk, in a chronicle of the struggles and rewards that accompany raising their children.

Primarily rotating around interviews of Pennywise lead singer Jim Lindberg, the documentary intermittently switches amongst different musicians, as it jumps between their travels on the road doing concert tours and time spent at home with their kids.

Remarking that their adolescence often lacked much in the way of paternal guidance,[2] the interviewees speak of how they earnestly are trying to be the supportive role models for their kids that they themselves never had while growing up.

The documentary received generally positive reviews from critics, with Jeanette Catsoulis of The New York Times describing it as "a compelling and often touching peek at punk paternity"[3] and Joe Heim of The Washington Post praising the film's dual nature as "beautifully shot and requisitely gritty.
