This documentary by David Charles Rodrigues portrays Genesis in all their countless facets, through the words of those who came to truly understand them, both as a person and as a social phenomenon. The complexity of identity is at the heart of everything Genesis explored throughout their life, as well as at the center of many controversies that surrounded them.
Archival testimonies from William Burroughs, Brion Gysin, Timothy Leary, along with contributions from Alice Genesse (Psychic TV) and David J (Bauhaus / Love and Rockets) form just a little part of the artistic landscape that Genesis inspired.
An incredibly rich existence, a relentless provocateur that has influenced popular culture far more than most people realize.
