In the early ‘90s in Austin, Texas, musician Kevin Gant was the de facto hero of Mark and Jay Duplass, the filmmaking brothers who later went on to direct indie favorites like The Puffy Chair and Baghead. The Duplasses reveled in Kevin’s exploratory musical style and playful spirituality, which strikes one as part folk, part alternative, and a tad New Age — all in all, uniquely “Kevin”. But in 1995, Kevin mysteriously disappeared. Jay Duplass’ documentary debut explores who Kevin is, how he lost his inspiration and his journey back to his creative source. The film is followed by a Q&A with director Jay Duplass, producer Josh Polon; as well, Kevin Gant will be in attendance to perform a short set!
Kevin Dir. Jay Duplass, 2010, HDCAM, 36 min.
