MONSTER ROAD – A DOCUMENTARY ABOUT BRUCE BICKFORD

Director: Brett Ingram A release for Microcinema Theatrical release: May 1, 2010

Bruce Bickford is known for his far-out animated collaborations with rock musician Frank Zappa during the ’70s. He later became a recluse. Today he no longer makes films for any particular audience, yet remains creative. The film shows Bickford toiling away alone, fashioning clay universes of all shapes and sizes, replete with magical forests and mythical creatures. He also takes care of his father, George, a retired engineer who shares some of his obsessions.

A fascinating, slightly eerie look into the mind of a true animation genius.Variety
