Johnny Cash captured the hearts of millions and enriched the history of American music with his larger-than-life persona. "The Man in Black" was drawn to people who had become prisoners of their own choices. These were people with whom he could identify, as his own battles with addiction and heartbreak were no secret. Eleven Grammy awards, Hall of Fame inductions, hit songs, television appearances and millions of devoted fans around the world could not bring Johnny peace and, for that reason, the life story of this cultural icon cannot be fully told without investigating the lifelong spiritual quest of Johnny Cash.

This musical documentary takes you into the deep places of his heart where he would ultimately find joy and fulfillment when he had tried everything else. Out of his authentic faith came a love for gospel music through which he would further impact his generation with songs of hope.
