Following Sean

About This Movie

Following Sean is a fascinating dive into the life of a kid growing up amidst the turbulent backdrop of 60s San Francisco. Ralph Arlyck, the filmmaker, revisits his past interactions with Sean, who was a bright-eyed child back then, and now reflects on his journey. The pacing is quite contemplative, allowing you to soak in the era's mood, the social upheaval, and Sean’s personal evolution. The documentary captures the essence of a time when ideals clashed with reality, and it feels distinctly personal—almost like a laid-back conversation over a cup of coffee. The interviews are raw and sincere, giving you a real sense of connection. It’s a little gem for anyone interested in the counterculture movement and the way it shaped lives.
