Summary
8 years in the making my guest Director, Peter Dowd follows a man around that is absolutely obsessed with Jimmy Page.
The first time Akio Sakurai hears Led Zeppelin as a teenager, and then laid eyes on the band in The Song Remains the Same, the group's 1976 concert documentary, Sakurai has had one mission in life: to demonstrate his adoration of Zeppelin founder Jimmy Page. He is completely candid about this: "I want to be Jimmy Page," he remembers thinking.
The film is an amazing Document of what it's like to dive way down a rabbit hole. Passion is in full effect here.
Peter has made a fantastic film and if you are a Led Zeppelin freak like myself you are really going to enjoy this.
