Eletään vuotta 1973. 15-vuotias koulupoika William Miller saa elämänsä tilaisuuden kun Rolling Stone -lehti palkkaa hänet kiertäväksi rock-toimittajaksi Stillwater-nimisen nousevan bändin kiertueelle. Pikkupojasta lähtien William on ollut rokkifanaatikko; teininä hän jo kirjoittaa levyarvosteluja marginaalijulkaisuihin. William ystävystyy musadiggari/journalisti Lester Bangsin kanssa, ja Lesterin avulla William pääsee kärpäseksi hämyisten takahuoneiden kattoon. Tien päällä rokkareiden kanssa William tutustuu myös groupiejengiin, joka on fanaattisen uskollinen juuri tälle bändille. Erityisesti Penny Lane tekee nuoreen Williamiin vaikutuksen, mutta Pennyn mielenkiinto kohdistuu rokkipoppoon salskeaan kitaristiin.

Street art, creativity and revolution collide in this beautifully shot film about art’s ability to create change. The story opens on the politically charged Thailand/Burma border at the first school teaching street art as a form of non-violent struggle. The film follows two young girls (Romi & Yi-Yi) who have escaped 50 years of civil war in Burma to pursue an arts education in Thailand. Under the threat of imprisonment and torture, the girls use spray paint and stencils to create images in public spaces to let people know the truth behind Burma's transition toward "artificial democracy." Eighty-two hundred miles away, artist Shepard Fairey is painting a 30’ mural of a Burmese monk for the same reasons and in support of the students' struggle in Burma. As these stories are inter-cut, the film connects these seemingly unrelated characters around the concept of using art as a weapon for change.
