Description

"An intimate documentary portrait of England's greatest lost musical genius." - The Guardian. By the beginning of the 2000s, Lawrence is struggling and about to be evicted from his Belgravia rooms while his latest incarnation, Go-Kart Mozart, attempt to 'rehearse live' for an upcoming tour that never materializes. From back street pubs to Paris and on to the Hammersmith Odeon, opening to an empty auditorium, Lawrence maintains a rugged determination that will not give up, no matter how adverse the terrain. Follow the creation of an album, and various attempts at promotion while homeless and condemned to hostel living, and finally the glimmer of a new beginning where hope and redemption become bedfellows with Lawrence's famed 'abject passive misery'. Paul Kelly's stirring character study of life lived within the margins of an unforgiving music business.
