20,000 Days on Earth
One of the most beautiful and original films of its kind (nailing the Directing and Editing Awards at the Sundance Film Festival), "20.000 Days on Earth" doesn't just grant you an all-access pass to the mind of a fascinating artist, it constitutes a stand-out specimen of non-fiction filmmaking that ought to become an example.
After a short introduction, where a fact-paced editing sequence tries to sum up Nick Cave's life so far (aka his previous 19.999 days on Earth) through archival footage and stills, the film encounters him still in bed, with his wife asleep next to him. What follows is an endlessly fascinating, stream-of-consciousness panorama of a multi-faceted artist, enhanced by Cave's unexpectedly confessional mood, masterfully combining fiction with documentary to reveal the man behind the myth.
