Telling it like it is

This documentary presents an unvarnished look at the lives and inspiration of today's singer-songwriters. With an incredible sound track of heartfelt, inspired music, the filmmaker gets his subjects, like Mary Gauthier, Peter Case, and Chris Smither, to open up and talk about the ups and downs of living on the road, about where they draw their ideas and fuel their creativity, and just why they choose-- no, why they need-- to live this life. It's also a funny movie (these people all have good, ironic senses of humor), and the live performance footage is very real. Overall, a terrific look behind the curtain at a group of talented artists and their lives and motivations.
