Patrick is a busker who finds great joy and purpose in bringing happiness to others through music. The documentary follows Patrick through his daily routines of practicing music in his church and busking outdoors, showing how music is his form of worship and how making others smile through song makes him truly happy. Interviews with Patrick reveal his philosophy that happiness is fleeting so you must seize each moment, and that being self-employed through busking allows him freedom and fulfillment.
