Synopsis

Considered “the American Rimbaud,” poet Bob Kaufman contributed a singular voice to the poetic imaginings of world literature. Born to a Jewish father and a Black Catholic mother, his work reflects the struggles of the United States during his active years among the Beat writers in San Francisco.

MUBI's take

Long overlooked, L.A. Rebellion filmmaker Billy Woodberry returned to feature directing after 30 years with this illuminating documentary about Black Beat poet Bob Kaufman. Playfully combining archival footage with present-day interviews, the film is a visceral examination of a remarkable life.
