Description

Black and white UCLA Student Film, Preserved by the UCLA Film and Television Archive. A haunting portrait of desperation in the alleys behind the beachside boardwalk. A "wino" whose days are consumed with drinking, is struck by a moral imperative to give the begging Blind man money. A fictional narrative short with experimental techniques. Keyboardist for The Doors, Ray Manzarek, plays the blind man.
