The Devil and Daniel Johnston

Total classic. The fascinating and terrible story of the American singer-songwriter Daniel Johnston, a brilliant artist and manic depressive, and his battle against the devil. That first love that would wind up in marrying an undertaker, the flirtations with LSD, his encounter with Sonic Youth… all explained through a cut and paste of photos, interviews, home movies and shards of life that form a portrait both heartbreaking and full of hope.
