A press release from COJO Music/Warner Music Nashville and Trafalgar Releasing describes the film as recounting "Johnson's real-life journey from the dusty rodeo arenas of rural Texas to some of the biggest musical stages in America."
"Johnson's hit song, 'Dear Rodeo,' paints the heartbreaking picture of how the rodeo was his first love that got away," reads the press release. "But a four-minute song isn't enough to tell the full story of his move from the rodeo to the radio. The brand-new cinematic feature-length documentary, directed by Shaun Silva, is the much bigger picture. As Johnson says, 'It went from being my life story to being everybody's life story.' The film goes deeper than an autobiography, sharing more than just Johnson's story. It's a love letter to everyone who has had to abandon a dream in order to find true purpose."
