The elusive Canadian outsider-artist musician Lewis’ landmark album L’Amour was recorded in 1983 but lay in obscurity until later discovered in 2008. In between speculative episodes from Lewis’ life and career, fans discuss the myths surrounding him on an online forum.
Circling around a mystery worthy of Twin Peaks, the swooning seventeen minutes of this beautiful, beguiling film are a tribute to a cult musician and the romance of not-knowing. Mixing gossamer sounds with sublime imagery, filmmaker Kurt Walker clearly has an ear for beauty, and an eye for it too.
