William S. Burroughs: A Man Within

A tender, vibrant portrait of a Beat Generation icon, WILLIAM S BURROUGHS: A MAN WITHIN explores the brilliant and troubled world of one of our greatest authors. Featuring never-before-been-seen archival footage of Burroughs, as well as exclusive interviews with colleagues and confidants such as John Waters, Patti Smith and Iggy Pop, the film, set to a soundtrack by Patti Smith and Sonic Youth, demonstrates how Burroughs’ works spawned a countercultural movement.
