Set against the shifting landscape of 20th-century America, Visions of Doc follows Robert “Doc” Anderson—a gifted strongman, wanderer, and reluctant psychic whose visions blur the line between fate and free will.
From circus tents and bullrings to war-torn Europe and the spiritual testing grounds of Africa, Doc spends a lifetime wrestling with a power that offers clarity at a devastating cost. As journalist Penny Brown retraces his path decades later, the truth behind the man becomes harder to define—and impossible to ignore.
