Jonas(1968)
Jonas Synopsis
A verité portrait of Jonas Mekas making his daily rounds, JONAS shows us the underground impresario attending a peace rally, filming in Central Park, typing up notes at the Village Voice and projecting his latest rushes at the Film-Makers' Cooperative. A true New Yorker, Mekas seems to be everywhere at once, always with a Bolex camera slung over his shoulder. In detailing these routines, director Gideon Bachmann comes away with a striking time capsule of a city bent on art.
Jonas (1968) is a documentary film directed by Gideon Bachmann, released on January 1, 1968 with a runtime of 32m. It stars Jonas Mekas.
