"Most of what was known about Kaufman's life and biography was shrouded in myth and legend", according to one speaker in this documentary about Beat-Generation poet Bob Kaufman who died in 1986. It's the myths and legends about Kaufman that make this film's title (based of course on one of his texts) so apt. Passing on stories keeps people alive long after their last breath. So evoking these tales about Kaufman is almost as if Kaufman were being evoked himself. (International Film Festival Rotterdam)
