A Good Man plot

The controversial American choreographer Bill T. Jones has been asked by the Ravinia Festival near Chicago to create a work on the occasion of the bicentenary of Abraham Lincoln's birth. Lincoln, the sixteenth president of the United States and the first president to be assassinated while in office, means a lot to Jones. He grew up as a black boy in a humble Florida farm environment in the 1950s before moving to upstate New York. The film follows him and his company during the intensive creative process and interweaves this with archive material and interviews with him, dancers from the company and other close collaborators.
