Summary
When the brilliant writing and troubled life of Californian Larry Levis came to an abrupt halt at age 49, his death posed a question: is self-destruction required for a life fully committed to art? Featuring an original score by Iron and Wine, this innovative documentary searches his childhood working alongside Mexican-American field hands, three marriages, friendships with America's greatest poets, and his own words for answers. The film had its world premiere at the Bay Area's 2016 Mill Valley Film Festival and was an official selection at five more festivals, including the 2017 Palm Beach Int'l Film Festival and the 2016 Virginia Film Festival
