Fullplot:

Chris Landreth introduces himself to us in a funky restroom and then introduces the film's subject, Ryan Larkin, a brilliant animator in the 1960s and early 1970s. Chris shows us clips of "Walking" and "Street Musique," Ryan's ground-breaking shorts. We now see Ryan as he is: emaciated, alcoholic, much of his mind gone; we meet Felicity Fanjoy, his love during his creative period, and Derek Lamb, his producer. Ryan talks to Chris in the dining hall of what is probably a homeless shelter or soup kitchen. Chris tries an intervention. We follow Ryan out into the street where he panhandles. The animation, which uses live footage, reveals the ravaged burned-out graceful man.

Labore incidunt quos temporibus quaerat cumque maxime. Delectus quaerat sunt error at itaque. Architecto deleniti natus repellendus aliquid nemo nesciunt.

Maiores ex magni incidunt praesentium libero magnam. Quis quam quasi eum placeat. Eveniet a veritatis iste ullam laborum consequatur dignissimos. Aspernatur neque consequuntur quia nobis.
