in 2009 Films & Events

City Hall Arts Center
This portrait of legendary singer, artist and poet Patti Smith is a plunge into the philosophy and artistry of the cult rocker. Known as the godmother of punk, she emerged in the 1970s, galvanizing the music scene with her unique style of poetic rage, music and trademark swagger. We follow the multitalented and private artist over 11 years of international travel, through her spoken words, performances, lyrics, interviews, paintings and photographs. Narrated by Patti Smith, director Steven Sebring’s documentary reveals a complicated, charismatic personality who wrestles with life’s many paradoxes, defining the human experience as an overwhelming contradiction. 109 minutes.
