Orson is a young boy whose mother works at the US Army base in Germany in the 1950s. There, he becomes a fan of a GI stationed at the base, one Elvis Presley, whose music is played over and over on the radio.
When Orson is caught stealing recordings of Elvisโ tunes from the post exchange store, the attendant publicity catches the starโs attention, and he comes to visit his young fan. Thus begins a lifelong friendship.
As Elvisโs career rockets ever higher and his behavior becomes ever more erratic, the two share many adventures. The sixties explode, and Elvis becomes the icon of the nation, while Orson, a college demonstrator, drifts away from regular life looking for something of substance to believe in.
Each man is an emblem of his times, as social conventions crumble, barriers fall, and the cultural landscape changes forever.
