Było to lato, gdy umarł Coltrane, lato miłości i zamieszek, lato, gdy przypadkowe spotkanie na Brooklynie pchnęło dwoje młodych ludzi na drogę twórczości artystycznej, poświęcenia i inicjacji.Patti Smith została poetką i wykonawczynią, a Robert Mapplethorpe rozwijał swój bardzo prowokacyjny styl w dziedzinie fotografii.
