Charming, intelligent and iconoclastic, Ben Lee is an Australian singer-songwriter whose creative growth since his early adolescence has undergone almost relentless media scrutiny. This is a playful yet deeply intimate portrait of Lee, exploring his meteoric rise to pop stardom and the issues of celebrity and spirituality that arise when launched into the spotlight.

Plot

At age 19 Ben Lee said he had made the greatest Australian album of all time, eleven years later he is one of Australian music's most notorious self-styled icons. Nine years in the making and spanning three continents, Ben Lee: Catch My Disease is a feature documentary about pop music, spirituality, celebrity and the erosion of reality. A highly authored portrait of a charming, confounding, at times infuriating artist, Ben Lee: Catch my Disease is an acerbic yet profoundly intimate portrait of a unique child pop star who stepped through the looking glass of fame.
