Through interviews with visionaries from a variety of fields interwoven with enactments of classic tales, the film navigates the stages of what Campbell dubbed "the hero¹s journey." Finding Joe shows how Campbell¹s work is relevant and essential in today¹s world and how it provides a narrative for how to live a fully realized life  or as Campbell would simply state, how to "follow your bliss."
