Known as the architect of folk revival, Pete Seeger is one of the greatest American singer/songwriters of all time.  Criticized for his strong beliefs, he was picketed and protested and banned from commercial television for nearly two decades.  Musicians including Bob Dylan, Arlo Guthrie, Joan Baez, Bonnie Raitt, Bruce Springsteen, Natalie Maines and Peter, Paul & Mary appear in this documentary and discuss Seeger's influence on American music.
