About the Film

In 2011, music legend Glen Campbell set out on an unprecedented tour across America. They thought it would last five weeks instead it went for 151 spectacular sold out shows over a triumphant year and a half across America.

What made this tour extraordinary was that Glen had recently been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. He was told to hang up his  guitar and prepare for the inevitable. Instead, Glen and his wife went  public with his diagnosis and announced that he and his family would  set out on a “Goodbye Tour.”

The film documents this amazing journey as he and his family attempt to navigate the wildly unpredictable nature of Glen’s progressing disease using love, laughter and music as their medicine of choice.
