New York graphic designer Stefan Sagmeister lives in the city of his dreams and works with the likes of The Rolling Stones, David Byrne, Steven Tyler and Jay-Z. There are no problems with business, creative forces are not exhausted, but it seems to him that life is not limited to this. Zagmeister fearlessly begins a project to change his own personality, trying to find out what factors make a person living in a metropolis happy. On the advice of a psychologist he trusts, Sagmeister experiments with three different approaches: meditation, therapy and drugs. The film documents his search and honestly shows everything Stefan encounters on his way: joy, ecstasy, heartbreak, change, love and death.
