Changing Keys - Billy McLaughlin and the Mysteries of Dystonia follows the virtuoso guitarist who began having unexplainable muscle spasms in his fretboard arm and hand at the height of his career. In 2001, Mayo Clinic confirmed McLaughlin's opponent - an incurable neuro-muscular disorder called focal dystonia. After years of countless therapies, McLaughlin was forced to give up his life's passion playing solo guitar and abruptly disappeared from sight of his national fan-base. Five years in the making, this documentary chronicles McLaughlin's unlikely attempt to re-claim his career by re-training himself to become a left-handed guitarist and delves into the scientific mysteries of dystonia. The film delivers a story about determination, persistence and personal triumph wrapped in the exquisite music of this innovative and newly left-handed guitarist.
