The Austin City Limits show was a small public television program that became an international phenomenon. Looking back on its 40 year history, the show's originators tell the distinctly Austin story of how Austin City Limits became television's longest running music show. Austin filmmaker Keith Maitland has made a celebratory but deeply affecting portrait of Austin City Limits, featuring performance highlights from throughout the history of the show from the likes of Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton and Ray Charles, all the way to Beck and the Alabama Shakes.
