The most radical composer you never knew was also an insurance nerd.
A thoroughly researched biopic of Charles Ives, America's greatest and most innovative composer (and insurance executive), who combined strikingly futuristic experimentalism with gentle nostalgia. Includes narration taken directly from Ives's own writings, and reminiscence from those who knew him.
Direction
Intimate archival approach feels like rifling through a genius's desk.
Writing
Ives's own words narrate—poetic, cranky, surprisingly funny.
