About:
The unexpected story of a long-vanished jailhouse musician.
The film screened as part of DOC NYC, for which our program notes read:
Ike White was a musical prodigy serving life in prison since age 19. His luck changed when he had the opportunity to record in prison the album Changin’ Times (1976) with WAR producer Jerry Goldstein. Decades later, filmmaker Daniel Vernon tracks down White out of prison, living in obscurity, and the story takes dramatic twists.
