Cult icon, enigma, recluse--the life of Syd Barrett, founding member of Pink Floyd, is full of unanswered questions. Piecing together his comet-like rise to pop stardom, his creative and destructive impulses, breakdown, exit from the band and subsequent life alone, this feature length documentary is set against the social context of the explosive sixties. Features new interviews with Syd's friends, lovers, family and band mates.
