In an oppressive future, a 'fireman' whose duty is to destroy all books begins to question his task.

The film will center on a stand-up comedian and his life over the course of one night during a comedy set. After words are exchanged between the comedian and the crowd, truths are revealed that could change the lives of everyone involved.

19-year-old Bob Dylan arrives in New York City in 1961 seeking to find his hero, an ailing Woody Guthrie. He is embraced by the New York folk scene (Guthrie, Pete Seeger, Joan Baez and others) who recognize his talent. He finds gigs in downtown clubs and soon becomes a sensation, landing a contract with Columbia Records. From there, Dylan ascends to the status of a cultural phenomenon, but ultimately transitions away from folk music as he embraces the electric guitar, confusing his fans and disappointing the music community that first took him in.
