Patti Smith: Dream of Life

A long-term observational documentary about rock icon, poet, activist, mother, and legend Patti Smith. Shot over the course of 11 years by photographer Steven Sebring, the film melodically weaves Smith’s own stream of consciousness narrative about her life with the material filmed by Sebring.
