This biographical documentary about stand-up comic Bill Hicks uses a photo-animation technique to tell the story of his rise to fame. Through archival material, footage of his routines and interviews with the people who knew him - including filmmaker Kevin Booth, childhood friend and comedian Dwight Slade and members of his family - we discover how Hicks emerged from his Southern Baptist upbringing to become one of the most famous performers in America.
