An intimate documentary portrait of Lawrence, the musician behind cult UK bands Felt, Denim and Go-Kart Mozart.
Unless you already worship at the altar of Lawrence, there's not much concession made to you; it feels very much for devotees only.
Kelly’s film is both a touching portrait of a single damaged, indefatigable dreamer, and a reminder of just how swift and dizzying the recent technological and commercial shifts within the music industry have been. And even if all it does is introduce a few more people to Felt, it’s made the world a happier place.
Beautifully shot with lots of remarkable images, Kelly's film pulls off the difficult trick of not adding any more drama to a life that's been full of it.
