Summary:
In this definitive documentary, director Christopher Felver crafts an incisive, sharply wrought portrait of Lawrence Ferlinghetti, a catalyst for numerous literary careers and for the Beat movement itself. One-on-one interviews with Ferlinghetti, made over the course of a decade, touch upon various characters and events that began to unfold in postwar America including the publication of Allen Ginsberg's Howl, William S. Burroughs' Naked Lunch, and Jack Kerouac's On the Road as well as the divisive events of the Vietnam war, the sexual revolution, and this country's perilous march towards intellectual and political bankruptcy.
