Almost There

About This Movie

Almost There is one of those documentaries that just sticks with you. It’s about Peter Anton, an older artist who's been living in these pretty rough conditions, kind of off the grid. The filmmakers spent eight years with him, which really shows in the pacing; it feels like you’re peeling back layers of a life that’s rich with stories. The atmosphere is both somber and uplifting as you see how art can change someone’s world. There’s a rawness to his work, and the way they handle his first major exhibition is fascinating, especially with the controversies that come up. It’s compelling stuff, and Anton’s journey feels incredibly personal and relatable. Definitely has a unique vibe to it.
