CGiii Comment

Minimalist composer Tony Conrad remembers that as a child, he was much introverted. Yet, in front of Marie Losier's camera, it is hard to believe. Indeed, he turns into odd and eccentric characters, playing with his feet or oranges, cooking reels and canning them, or crazily dancing dressed as a woman. The great American artist and musician, who inspired the Velvet Undergound, tells about his life, the puppet shows he used to do with his mother, his discovery of violin, his friendship with La Monte Young, and his meeting with Jack Smith. Marie Losier offers not only a sweet and funny portrait of her friend Tony Conrad, but also an ode to friendship and to the tiny moments of creativity that amount to the salt of life.
