Plot Summary of Vision of Johanna
"It's the mid-60's and our hero is coming to terms with the world around him and his unrequited love for the beautiful and daring Johanna. Set against a backdrop of free love and flower power on the one hand and the Vietnam War this is a voyage of self-discovery that shocks as much as inspires reminiscences in those who were there."
