Being Frank: The Chris Sievey Story

Director: Steve Sullivan Run Time: 100 min. Format: DCP Release Year: 2018

Chris Sievey’s life was a subversive piece of performance art. His greatest creation, a paper mâché headed Frank Sidebottom, became a manic and insane star obscuring his own creator who descended into alcoholism and bankruptcy. The Frank Sidebottom story tells the twisted tale of a split personality, exploring the extraordinary secret life of a songwriter, artist, comedian and wayward genius.
