The documentary from Sweden—which has made a number of Best Of lists since its release—explores the short life and mysterious death of an avant-garde saxophonist whose inventive style and philosophies continue to influence musicians.
"An excellent documentary film ... about artistic integrity in the face of poverty, and of commitment to a musical vision." (The Guardian)
"By turns illuminating and heartbreaking ... completely alters the way you hear and feel the music." (The Wire)
"One of the most starkly beautiful and moving documentaries ever made about a jazz musician." (Jazz Times)
