A Film by Mark Steensland and Andy Massagli
Philip K. Dick may be science fiction's greatest writer ever. His novels and
stories continue to inspire a generation of filmmakers, writers, technophiles
and philosophers. But for the last ten years of his life, he inhabited a reality
stranger than the fiction he created. Hear about the mysterious break-in at
his California home, the letter he thought would kill him, the series of visions
he believed were Divinely inspired and the 8,000 page manuscript he wrote in
an effort to unlock the meaning of it all.
Combining interviews with animation, a pulsating techno soundtrack, and rare
audio recordings of PKD himself, the filmmakers have created a portrait that
Film Threat calls "A labor of love, designed to appeal to fans and novices
alike."
"As fascinating and unnerving as any of Dick's fiction." - Film Threat
"Philip K. Dick inhabited a reality as surreal as those in the stories
he wrote." - USA Today
