“I’m Not There” erzählt die Lebensgeschichte der lebenden Musiklegende Bob Dylan. Sechs Fassetten des undurchschaubaren Musikers, spielend in sechs verschiedenen Zeitepochen und sechs verschiedenen Personen bilden den Inhalt der filmischen Biografie Dylans.

Fascinated by musicians since his first film Superstar, Haynes delivered a similarly impressionistic take on the biopic in this unconventional portrait of Bob Dylan. A revolving cast of stars (like Christian Bale, Cate Blanchett & Heath Ledger) explore the many facets that make up a character.
