The film follows the rise of nineteen-year-old Minnesota musician Bob Dylan on the New York music scene of the early 1960s - from folk singer to the top of the charts and concert halls.

His songs and mystique became a global sensation, culminating in his groundbreaking electric guitar performance at the Newport Folk Festival in 1965.
