FOOL IN A BUBBLE, a must-see for music lovers, explores the journey and conflicts of cult Durban musician/poet, Syd Kitchen. The film weaves Syd's past, present and foreseeable future as he records a landmark album in New York with South African musicians from Paul Simon's Graceland album. Syd is remarkably candid in his interviews, revealing a fragility and self-awareness that makes for compelling viewing. Ultimately, a film about hope through music, poetry and power of the human spirit, FOOL IN A BUBBLE is arguably, one of the finest documentaries made about a South African musician.
