Nelson Algren: The End Is Nothing, The Road Is All

Documentary | 2015 | 87 min
Directors/Producers: Denis Mueller, Mark Blottner & Ilko Davidov

This feature-length documentary tells the compelling life story of one of America’s greatest and least understood authors, Nelson Algren, whose unique literary voice is revealed through historic archival footage, rare interviews with Studs Terkel and Kurt Vonnegut,  and the voice of Algren himself.

The filmmakers will be present for a post-screening Q&A. Special thanks to Ben & Jerry’s for sponsoring the VT Filmmakers Showcase and to the Vermont Arts Council for supporting our work with Vermont films.
