“The film (…) is not about a star guitarist but about a man who loved the electric guitar and took that into his life to share with those around him. John appears as the most “ordinary” (and I mean that in a positive way) of people who just had an extraordinary gift with the guitar, the humanity of John shines through in the film.” Eric Taffyn
