Synop­sis:

   Shot in the tra­di­tion of the six­ties and seven­ties film-diary, this highly valua­ble docu­ment is an inti­ma­te depic­tion of legen­dary under­ground film­ma­ker Geor­ge Kuchar in the midst of his crea­ti­ve pro­cess as he shoots Queen Con­ga (2006), one of his famous stu­dent colla­bo­ra­tion films made for “Psy­cho­tro­nic Tele­plays”, the class he taught for seve­ral deca­des at the San Fran­cis­co Art Ins­ti­tu­te in Cali­for­nia. Among the par­ti­ci­pants that appear on-screen the­re is Ian Sun­dahl and Jor­ge Loren­zo –actor and came­ra­man for Kuchar’s pro­ject res­pec­ti­vely– who both enro­lled in the cour­se during their stu­dies in the institute.
