A portrait of avant-garde filmmaker Kenneth Anger, a pivotal figure in the history of experimental film. An innovator and a pioneer, he literally blazed his own trail.
Considered to be one of the major personalities of the 1960's and 1970's underground art scene, Kenneth defined himself as a "cinematographic magician" and his "cinema" as a ritualistic form. Anger's films have taken audiences places where only great film poets can arrive.

“One of the coolest and most original indies of the last year.” - Scott Macaulay, Filmmaker Magazine
In the confusion following a massive power outage, an awkward demolition derby driver vanishes, setting in motion a series of events affecting his pregnant girlfriend, his helplessly car-less father, a pack of wild boy scouts, a lactose intolerant roller rink employee, an elderly woman in search of her lost dog, and his best friend – a ten-year-old girl named Turkeylegs.
