Through the writer's mirror
2023•1h 18m•Released
Documentary
In a small office cluttered with books and other detritus of the writer's life, filmmaker Alexandre Westphal and the writer Percival Everett explore his work. Archival images are projected onto the walls, invading the space and intermingling with Everett's text, to illuminate many of the myriad and fascinating ways that his books reveal contemporary America to itself.
