During the winter of 1975 in Hawaii, surfing was shaken to its core. A group of young surfers from Australia and South Africa sacrificed everything and put it all on the line to create a sport, a culture, and an industry that is today worth billions of dollars and has captured the imagination of the world. With a radical new approach and a brash colonial attitude, these surfers crashed headlong into a culture that was not ready for revolution. Surfing was never to be the same again.

Dabei verschafft Guggenheim dem Zuschauer intime und faszinierende Einblicke in den kreativen Kosmos seiner drei Protagonisten, er begleitet sie an historische Stätten der Rockmusik und gibt ihnen die Gelegenheit, die Geschichte ihrer ganz persönlichen musikalischen Entwicklung zu erzählen. So führt uns Jimmy Page nach Headley Grange, wo er "Stairway to Heaven" komponierte; The Edge nimmt uns mit nach Dublin, wo er die Original-Vierspuraufnahmen von "Where the Streets Have No Name" ausgräbt; und Jack White zeigt uns ein altes Farmhaus in Tennessee, das ihn immer wieder zu seinem modernen Blues inspiriert.

Als jedoch die Hochzeitsgesellschaft samt Bräutigam verunglückt, ringt Taanis Vater auf dem Sterbebett seinem ehemaligen Musterschüler ein Versprechen ab: Surinder soll sich von nun an um Taani kümmern. Der schüchterne Junggeselle nimmt Taani zu seiner Frau, doch kann er keine Lebenslust in ihr wecken. Zu einfältig und grau erscheint ihm sein eigenes Ich. Als Taani einen Tanzkurs besuchen will, beschließt er, um ihretwillen eine neue Identität anzunehmen. Unbemerkt wird er zu “Raj”, ihrem hippen, witzigen Tanzpartner, und schleicht sich langsam in ihr Herz. Doch am Ende steht die Frage: Wen liebt Taani wirklich – den offenherzigen Autohändler Raj oder doch den bodenständigen Surinder? Oder gar beide?
