In 1979 Jerry Wennstrom was a rising star in the art world when he decided that the ultimate creative leap was to destroy his art, give away his possessions, and spend the next ten years wandering, seeking, and listening. In search of a more authentic life, he threw himself into the great unknown by taking the path of radical emptiness. This documentary video speaks of a journey filled with mystery, magic and and grace.
Directed by Phil Lucas. Originally a Parabola video now a Sentient Publications video.
