The documentary follows Chilly Gonzales from his native Canada to late '90s underground Berlin, and via Paris to the world's great philharmonic halls - diving deep into the dichotomy of Gonzales' stage persona, where self-doubt and megalomania are just two sides of the same coin.

Philipp Jedicke zeichnet Chilly Gonzales’ Weg vom lauten Punk-Rap-Perfomer zum immer noch ziemlich lauten Kammer-Künstler nach. Man schaut gern zu, wie Gonzales seinen inneren Erik Satie sucht. Da ist alles drin: der inszenierte Grössenwahnsinn, der Schweiss und ein bisschen sogar das Scheitern.
