Born on Long Island, the white young Eugene Madong (Ralph George Macchio Ralph Macchio) has a high talent for playing classical guitar, but he loves blues and blues so much, especially for the legendary black blues singer Robert Johnson Tim Russ (played by Tim Russ) is fascinated. It is said that Johnson had recorded 30 songs during his lifetime, but only the first 29 have survived. In order to find the lost song, he went to find Johnson’s former partner-Willie Brown (Joe Seneca), a former member of the blues band "Blind Dog Fulton", and even entered Brown’s nursing home as a handyman. Through music, the old and the young are getting closer to each other, and Willie looks at the time to ask Ma Dong to take him out of the nursing home.
They are about to set off to Mississippi, the birthplace of the blind dog Fulton, to find the devil who had traded with musicians, and the lost legendary song.
