"John Chapman" is the mystical story of the man who became known as Johnny Appleseed. A humble American epic, the film follows John's life from his childhood in 1770's Massachusetts, across the birth of the nation, and into the lives of the pioneers and Indian tribes of the early 1800's. An adventure, historical drama, and true American tragedy, the film weaves live action and animation together -- blending history and folklore into a parable of the human experience.
