Фильм представляет историю рождения и развития бит-культуры Соединенных Штатов, одним из девизов которой стало изречение героя произведения Дж. Керуака: «Я люблю сумасшедших, таких, которые бешено хотят жить, бешено хотят говорить, бешено хотят спастись, которые хотят иметь все сразу, которые никогда не зевают и никогда не говорят пошлостей, а всегда горят, горят, горят».

Он стоит в пустыне отсчитывая секунды своей жизни
Self
«Фильм состоит из 124 коротких скетчей, каждый продолжительностью от полминуты до примерно двух минут. Портреты людей, с которыми я провел время, мест, времен года, погоды (штормы, снегопады, метели и так далее). Многое о моих друзьях кинематографистах - улицы и парки Нью-Йорка - короткий побег на природе, за город - ничего зрелищного, неважного праздника жизни, который к настоящему времени прошел, и остается только в качестве записи в этих личных кратких набросках...» Йонас Мекас.
This Song for Jack
Fried Shoes Cooked Diamonds
HImself
After World War II a group of young writers, outsiders and friends who were disillusioned by the pursuit of the American dream met in New York City. Associated through mutual friendships, these cultural dissidents looked for new ways and means to express themselves. Soon their writings found an audience and the American media took notice, dubbing them the Beat Generation. Members of this group included writers Jack Kerouac, William Burroughs, Allen Ginsberg. a trinity that would ultimately influence the works of others during that era, including the "hippie" movement of the '60s. In this 55-minute video narrated by Allen Ginsberg, members of the Beat Generation (including the aforementioned Burroughs, Anne Waldman, Peter Orlovsky, Amiri Baraka, Diane Di Prima, and Timothy Leary) are reunited at Naropa University in Boulder, CO during the late 1970's to share their works and influence a new generation of young American bohemians.
Wholly Communion
Himself
A short film documenting what was referred to as "The International Poetry Incarnation". It was billed as Great Britain's first full-scale "happening", with the world's leading Beat poets together under one roof at the Royal Albert Hall on June 11, 1965, for an evening of near-hallucinatory revelry. It came to be seen as one of the cultural high points of the Swinging Sixties.
Couch
Himself
The couch at Andy Warhol's Factory was as famous in its own right as any of his Superstars. In Couch, visitors to the Factory were invited to "perform" on camera, seated on the old couch. Their many acts-both lascivious and mundane-are documented in a film that has come to be regarded as one of the most notorious of Warhol's early works. Across the course of the film we encounter such figures as poets Allen Ginsberg and Gregory Corso, the writer Jack Kerouac, and perennial New York figure Taylor Mead.
