In 200 Motels, the film attempts to portray the craziness of life on the road as a rock musician, and as such consists of a series of unconnected nonsense vignettes interspersed with concert footage of the Mothers of Invention. Ostensibly, while on tour The Mothers of Invention go crazy in the small fictional town of Centerville ("a real nice place to raise your kids up"), wander around, and get beaten up in "Redneck Eats", a cowboy bar. In a long cartoon interlude bassist "Jeff", tired of playing what he refers to as "Zappa's comedy music", is persuaded by his bad conscience to quit the group, as did his real-life counterpart Jeff Simmons, who was fired for insubordination before the film began shooting. Simmons was replaced by Martin Lickert (who was Ringo's chauffeur) for the film. Almost every scene is drenched with video special effects (double and triple exposures, solarisation, false color, speed changes, etc.) which were innovative in 1971. The film has been dubbed a "surrealistic documentary".

En Mai 2011, Neil Young conduit une Crown Victoria 1956, depuis sa ville natale idyllique de Omemee (Ontario), jusqu'au mythique Massey Hall de Toronto, où il assure en toute intimité les 2 dernières date de sa tournée mondiale. Sur la route, Young raconte ses souvenirs de jeunesse à Jonathan Demme, réalisateur oscarisé pour Philadelphia et le Silence des Agneaux. Demme,collaborateur et fan de longue date du musicien, a su capter ces instants de pure intimité, leur donnant une ampleur sans pareil en les accompagnant d'extraits de concert de l'artiste. Des performances live sublimes, incluant des titres extraits de son album Le Noise, les grands classiques "Ohio", "Hey Hey, My My","I Believe in You", et les inédits "Leia" et "You Never Call". A travers la musique et les histoires personnelles de Neil Young, Demme nous plonge de façon introspective et rétrospective dans le coeur et l'âme d'un artiste de légende.

The film documents how Ry Cooder, long-time friend of Wenders, brought together the ensemble of legendary Cuban musicians to record an album (also called Buena Vista Social Club) and to perform two times with a full line-up: in April 1998 in Amsterdam (two nights) and the 1st of July 1998 in the United States (at the Carnegie Hall, New York City). Although they are geographically close, travel between Cuba and the United States is restricted due to the political tension between the two countries, so many of the artists were travelling there for the first time. The film shows their reactions to this experience, as well as including footage of the resultant sell-out concert. It also includes interviews with each of the main performers.
