Love & Mercy (2014) tells the story of Brian Wilson, the creative genius behind the Beach Boys, and the heavy toll his talent has taken on him. Set in the 1960s, during the peak of Brian's artistic years, the film explores his inner struggles and his desperate efforts to please his abusive father. These pressures eventually lead to a mental breakdown that has a lasting impact on his life.

Fast forward to the 1980s, and Brian is barely functioning under the control of the manipulative Dr. Landy. However, his life takes a turn when he meets and falls in love with Melinda Ledbetter. As their relationship deepens, Melinda becomes increasingly concerned about Brian's subservience to the abusive therapist.
