Customer Reviews

A documentary at its best5
This documentary film is truly a work of art. Unlike many documentaries that simply turn the camera on an interesting subject, Lucia Small works magic to bring creativity and personal interest to her story both in front of and behind the scenes to make the subject and this film so engaging. Telling the story of her father, she interweaves critique, engagement, surprise, frustration, and a sense of wonder at her father's continuing belief in himself as the true artist who has simply been misunderstood. Any daughter of any father growing up in the seventies will appreciate this!
