About Philip K Dick: A Day in the Afterlife
A poetic look at the life and legacy of legendary author Philip K. Dick (1928-1982), who wrote over a hundred short stories and 44 novels of mind-bending sci-fi, exploring themes of authority, drugs, theology, mental illness and much more.
Directed by Nicola Roberts, Philip K Dick: A Day in the Afterlife leans on a strong ensemble — Philip K. Dick, Brian Aldiss, Jim Blaylock — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 1994.
