De film vertelt het verhaal van acteur Bob Crane. Hij werd bekend als de ster van de hitkomedie Hogan's Heroes. Crane nam het er flink van, en had relaties met verschillende vrouwen. Uiteindelijk gaat Crane samenwerken met video-techneut John Carpenter om zijn seksuele uitstapjes op film vast te leggen. Deze samenwerking zou uiteindelijk leiden tot zijn moord in een motelkamer in 1978.
Nee, helaas is Auto Focus nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
