Speak Out Festival Kick Off
Screening of This Beggar’s Description
Philip Tétrault is a talented writer who, suffering from schizophrenia, has been locked up in jails and psych wards, kicked out of the house by desperate friends and family and spent long periods living on the streets of Montreal. Philip survives this mental illness and publishes his poetry. Leonard Cohen, who appears in the film, has his songs woven throughout. (PG)
