Fish Have No Psychiatrists: A Day With Andrei Codrescu

Home Documentary Fish Have No Psychiatrists: A Day With Andrei Codrescu

A creative documentary collage centering around the life and times of poet, novelist, public speaker and NPR commentator Andrei Codrescu. 60 years after director Julian Semilian and Andrei met on a plane while emigrating from România to the United States, Julian visits Andrei in Brooklyn for a freewheeling day of 20th century nostalgia and current creative insights. The film is a playful paean countering totalitarianisms and other forms of functional fixedness.
