The movie was directed by Joe Thomas and produced by Stevie Nicks and Daniela Barbosa. The concert begins with an introduction by Stevie herself, followed by the iconic "Stand Back" with her backup singers Sharon Celani and Marilyn Martin. The crowd erupts in cheers as Stevie takes the stage wearing her signature shawl and flowing layers of black chiffon. The setlist is a mix of Fleetwood Mac classics and solo hits, showcasing Stevie's iconic voice and mesmerizing stage presence.

As she moves through songs like "Gypsy," "Edge of Seventeen," and "Rhiannon," Stevie shares intimate anecdotes about the inspiration behind each song.

One of the highlights of the show is a stripped-down acoustic segment where Sharon Celani and Stevie perform "Secret Love," followed by "For What It's Worth" and "Stop Draggin' My Heart Around" with Drew Hester on drums. The acoustic set allows Stevie's vocal range to shine, as well as the intricate textures of her backup band. Fans who have been following Stevie's career for decades will appreciate the rare gems she pulls out of her vault — "Crying in the Night," which she wrote with Lindsay Buckingham in the '70s, and "Kick It," written in 1985 during the Rock a Little tour.

Throughout the concert, Stevie exudes an effortless charm and relatability, sharing candid stories about her upbringing in Arizona and her experiences with love and heartbreak. Her candor adds an emotional element to the performance, making it feel like she's speaking directly to the viewer as well as the audience.

As the concert draws to a close, Stevie ends on a high note with a rousing rendition of "Landslide," which has been a staple of her live shows for decades.
