A film that gives us a rare glimpse into the fascinating mind of the man who created such classic films as Eraserhead, The Elephant Man, Blue Velvet, Wild at Heart, and Mulholland Drive. Compiled from over two years of footage, the film is an intimate portrait of Lynch's creative process as he completes his latest film, Inland Empire. We follow Lynch as he discovers beauty in ideas, leading us on a journey through the abstract, which ultimately unveils his cinematic vision. The director of the documentary immersed himself in David Lynch's world, living and working at Lynch's home, gathering 700 hours of footage over two years. His unobtrusive style has captured a personal side of David Lynch never seen before. The film reveals Lynch not only as one of the most original and compelling directors of contemporary film, but also as an artist who continues to explore and experiment in countless mediums. We witness his "hands on" approach to painting, sculpting, music, and screenwriting. His enthusiasm is infectious - inspiring us to tap into the well of creativity that Lynch believes we all have. "As skewed, prismatic, and free of fluff as the man himself." (Entertainment Weekly) More at lynchdocumentary.com Video projection
