Still Bill plot

"You know the music. Now meet the man."

The black worker Bill Withers becomes world famous at the age of 32 with songs such as 'Ain't no sunshine when she's gone' and 'Use me'. But when music industry bosses start telling him what his music should sound like, he leaves the music industry behind and takes care of his kids. In 1997 he founded his own label. When he is deeply moved by a group of stuttering children, he blows the dust from his equipment and enthusiastically dives into the studio for the first time in years. This time with his daughter Kori. In this documentary, the swinging seventies Withers makes candid statements about his youth, segregation, the music industry and integrity with a lot of humor.
