Edward Norton plays Dave Von Ronk, the unidentified 'guy' who sends Dylan to a New Jersey hospital to find his musical hero, Joan Baez (Elle Fanning).
The film recreates Dylan's landmark performance at the 1965 Newport Folk Festival, where he infamously 'went electric' and shocked the folk purist crowd.
