Inside Scofield

synopsis

Over the course of his long and successful musical career, John Scofield crossed paths with people like Miles Davis, Charles Mingus, Gerry Mulligan, Herbie Hancock, Joe Henderson and Chet Baker. With his unique style and sound he became one of today's most influential master guitarists and composers of jazz and fusion music. Entirely shaped and inspired by Scofield's work, the film is simultaneously a celebration of his creative impact as of true friendship, free communication and courage towards human imperfection, an essential element in jazz. Scofield himself takes us on an inspiring trip into the mind and soul of one of today's most influential guitarists.
