Self-taught composer, musician, bandleader, producer and independent thinker, Frank Zappa created an oeuvre of blunt, eccentric, and satirical compositions that masterfully bridged genres ranging from rock to jazz, electronic, orchestral and novelty music. Told entirely through archival footage culled from the performer’s 30-year career, this energetic celebration of Zappa’s life and legacy illustrates his fierce intelligence, witty intransigence, political conviction and irrepressible quest for enlightenment.
