My Way is more than a song, it's a major score that has crossed the boundaries of eras and generations. An anthem that has become a part of ourselves and of music history. My Way is one of the most covered songs in the world, from Sid Vicious to Tom Jones, from Nina Simone to Pavarotti.

Like a biopic, this documentary recounts the birth of a myth and how a song entered the pantheon of pop culture.
