A feature-length documentary that chronicles the eccentric art and musical obsessions of indie record producer Long Gone John who established his own record label, Sympathy for the Record Industry, and compulsively amassed a vast collection of art, pop ephemera and oddities.

The film reveals the private world of each artist and their practice, and gives an account of the expanding popularity of the Lowbrow Art movement and its bible, Juxtapoz magazine. A Q and A Session with Director Gregg Gibbs and music journalist and comic artist Edwin Pouncey (AKA Savage Pencil), and a night of music from the Sympathy for the Record Industry's catalogue (DJ Saucerman) will follow the screening.
