The film stars Hollywood directors Andrew Davis, Michael Mann, Harold Ramis, John Landis, John McNaughton, Steven A. Jones, Stuart Gordon and Haskell Wexler. Chicago's best independent filmmakers are also featured:
Tom Palazzolo, Loretta Smith, Jerry Blumenthal, Gordon Quinn, Louis Antonelli, Katy Maguire, Ross Marks, Jim Sikora, Michael Dawson, Ayanna U'Dongo, Zeinabu Davis, Chris Ligon and Heather McAdams. Local film critics Gene Siskel, Roger Ebert, Ray Pride, and Dann Gire, are interviewed as well as Chicago Film Office Director Richard Moskal and the Honorable Richard M. Daley, Mayor of Chicago.

Using the city's famous river as a location, filmmaker D.P. CARLSON places filmmakers in a variety of boats and interviews them as they explore the river and share stories of how Chicago has influenced their careers.

The Chicago River comes to life as the artists float along the famous waterway, which is often photographed in films, but rarely featured as a continuous backdrop.
