Howl
James Franco becomes Allen Ginsberg, the heart and voice of the beat generation, in this breath-taking one-man-show. The Howl reconstructs an authentic interview with A.G., an animation of this hymnic poem and a law-suit against a publisher “The People vs. Lawrence Ferlinghetti” for obscenity. A film about this milestone and still cult poem through the portrait of an artist who saw “the best minds of my generations destroyed by madness”, loved Jack Kerouac and poet Peter Orlovsky and connected poetry, his political alignment and a personal statement about his loves and pains in an unique way.
