Description
Featuring never-before-seen archival footage of William Burroughs, as well as exclusive interviews with colleagues and confidants including John Waters, Iggy Pop, Gus Van Sant, and others this film is a probing, yet loving look at the man whose works at once savaged conservative ideals, spawned countercultural movements, and reconfigured 20th century culture. Burroughs was one of the first writers to break the boundaries of queer and drug culture in the 1950s. His novel Naked Lunch is one of the most recognized and respected literary works of the 20th century and has influenced generations of artists. The intimate documentary, narrated by Peter Weller and with a soundtrack by Patti Smith and Sonic Youth, breaks the surface of the troubled and brilliant world of one of the greatest authors of all time.
