An intimate portrait of the underground artist Robert Crumb, whose unique drawing style and sexually and racially provocative subject matter have made him a household name in popular American art. Zwigoff candidly and colorfully delves into the details of Crumb’s incredible career and life, including interviews with his family of reclusive eccentrics, some of the most remarkable people you’ll ever see on-screen. At once a profound biographical doc, a riotous examination of a man’s controversial art, and a devastating look at a troubled family, Crumb is a genuine American original. “Crumb is a film that gives new meaning to the notion of art as therapy” –Roger Ebert, Winner of Best Documentary from the Sundance Grand Jury, National Board of Review, and International Documentary Association as well as Film Critics groups of Boston, LA, and New York.
