The Baselstrasse is a street in Lucerne. People call it "Rue de Blamage" – it's a noisy street tucked into a narrow space between a hill and a train track. The people who live here don't usually mingle with the rich and famous, but even the roughest haunt can be a home to those who live and work there – and Baselstrasse's two kilometers of asphalt are no different.

Three men embark on a journey in search of meaning and happiness in the autumn of their lives: Bob swaps his safe home for a camper van and tries to find himself in the barren Californian desert; Steve, drag queen and stand-up comedian, is fed up of England and makes amends with his past in Benidorm; Yamada rediscovers his smile by reading stories to children in Tokyo.

Aunque no seamos completamente conscientes de ello, Harry Dean Stanton forma parte del elenco estable de la cinefilia: Monte Hellman, Sam Peckinpah, John Huston, Ridley Scott, John Carpenter, Francis Ford Coppola, Wim Wenders y David Lynch son algunos de los directores que lo tuvieron a sus órdenes. Y sin embargo, hay un halo de misterio alrededor de su vida y sus ideas: poco se sabe de él, y casi nunca lo hemos escuchado hablar fuera de la ficción de sus películas. El documental de Sophie Huber es, en ese aspecto, revelador. Aun frente a su actitud reticente hacia ciertos temas –e incluso hacia la idea de un film sobre sí mismo–, Stanton parece permitir todo el acercamiento posible, como si se tratase de un viejo león en su hábitat natural. Ya sea entrevistado por su amigo David Lynch o hablando de su breve pero intensa relación con Rebecca de Mornay, que terminó cuando, en el set de Risky Business, ella se decidió por un joven Tom Cruise.
