L'intrigue joue sur deux périodes spatiotemporelles : en 2011 à Paris, et dans les années 1842-1883 dans l’Europe parcourue par le compositeur : Allemagne, Suisse, Italie. Une jeune femme éprouve un amour exacerbé pour Wagner. Ce personnage décalé est la clé d'entrée dans l’univers wagnérien. Grâce à Judith, des personnages identiques se retrouvent dans les deux périodes.

I'm Not There uses a nonlinear narrative, shifting between six characters in separate storylines "inspired by the music and many lives of Bob Dylan". Each character represents a different facet of Dylan's public persona: poet (Arthur Rimbaud), prophet (Jack Rollins/Father John), outlaw (Billy McCarty), fake (Woody Guthrie), "rock and roll martyr" (Jude Quinn), and "star of electricity" (Robbie Clark). These seven characters represent different aspects of Dylan's life and music.
