The most extensive and intimate exploration of the figure and enigma of Syd Barrett: singer, guitarist, songwriter, and leader of the early Pink Floyd, until his already fragile mental health deteriorated thanks to hallucinogenic drug use, leading to decades of seclusion. A diverse range of voices, including childhood friends, romantic partners, fellow art school students, bandmates, notable fans, and psychologists, all strive to unravel the talent, magnetism, “fierce intelligence”, and the dimensions of the tragedy surrounding an absolute icon of late 60s counterculture and psychedelic rock.
Starring: Roger Waters, David Gilmour, Nick Mason, Storm Thorgerson, Mick Rock, Pete Townshend, Graham Coxon, Cedric Bixler-Zavala
