So, 'Lie Back and Enjoy It' isn't your typical documentary. It's a remix of JoAnn Elam's own footage, a bit of a collage really, reflecting her unique voice as an experimental filmmaker and activist. The film weaves through her life, touching on her struggles and triumphs without glossing over the grit. The pacing feels almost meditative, allowing viewers to absorb her work and philosophy. You get a real sense of her commitment to social issues, particularly around themes of gender and identity. The music by Tim Kinsella adds an interesting layer too, creating an atmosphere that feels both intimate and expansive. Overall, it’s a thought-provoking exploration of an often-overlooked figure in the film world.
