After having grown up through the 70’s glam-rock years in England as a massive fan of superstar, Brian Slade, 10 years later journalist, Arthur Stuart, is tasked with investigating Slade’s career and mysterious death. Going back and fourth between his youth being influenced by Brian and the hard-living American singer Curt Wild, and now, Arthur interviews people who were close to Brian, including his ex-wife Mandy, it seems most people now believe the death was a hoax so that Brian could escape his crazy life. Bringing up his past encounters with Curt, Arthur is forced to face his past and how it has affected the person he is now.
