In the Beginning Was the Image Synopsis
This documentary paints a fascinating portrait of Peter Whitehead, whose largely obscure yet important body of cinematic work from the 1960s and '70s includes The Fall (1969), a film that tracks the era's social and political unrest. After chronicling the frenetic lives of counterculture icons such as the Rolling Stones and Allen Ginsberg, Whitehead set his camera aside, quietly living out his life as a potter, writer and falconer.
In the Beginning Was the Image (2006) is a documentary film directed by Paul Cronin, released on October 22, 2006 with a runtime of 3h 20m. It stars Peter Whitehead.
