Portrait of an artist as a young man. Roughly

chronological, using archival footage intercut

with recent interviews, a story takes shape of Bob

Dylan’s coming of age as a singer, songwriter,

performer, and star. He takes from others: sing-

ing styles, chord changes, and rare records. He

keeps moving: on stage, around New York City and

on tour, from Suze Rotolo to Joan Baez and on,

from songs of topical witness to songs of rau-

cous independence, from folk to rock. He drops

the past. He refuses, usually with humor and

charm, to be simplified, classified, categorized, or

finalized: always becoming, we see a shapeshifter

on a journey abroad with no direction home.
