Film still from "Lost Angel: The Genius of Judee Sill," directed by Andy Brown and Brian Lindstrom (USA, 2022).

A beautiful and heartbreaking portrait of a singular 1970s California singer-songwriter whose life swung between personal devastation and dazzling artistic creation. After an adolescence marked by addiction, prostitution, armed robbery, and prison, Judee Sill went from living in her car to appearing on the cover of Rolling Stone in just two years. Through her personal diary, her drawings, and the voices of David Geffen, Linda Ronstadt, Jackson Browne, Graham Nash, lovers and friends, the film unravels her unique blend of country, gospel, and blues laced with baroque influences, her tragic fate, and a legacy revived by new generations—Fleet Foxes, Big Thief, Weyes Blood—where the search for ecstasy, vertigo, poetry and spirituality all converge.

Film will be screened in its original version with subtitles in Catalan.

A film in the 2025 edition of the In-Edit International Music Documentary Film Festival.
