Synopsis
A tale about a piece of rock 'n' roll mythology that happens to be surprisingly true. Thirty years ago, gifted country-rock musician Gram Parsons died young of an overdose; his manager, determined to abide by a pact the two had recently made, began an adventure worthy of Hunter S. Thompson in order to steal and deliver the singer's body to Joshua Tree National Park for cremation.
