The movie
mostly concentrates on Davis» fallow period from 1975 to 1979, when he stopped publishing
music and even ceased playing the trumpet at all, with flashbacks to his heyday in the 1950s and
early «60s.

early 1990s; the rise of grunge
music, the fall of the Berlin wall, the movie Reality Bites and the
mostly carefree days of college.
