Along the way, the film features never-before-seen footage, rare recordings, and interviews with Charlie Sexton, Buddy Miller, Mary Gauthier, and Lucinda herself. Directed by Joel Fendelman (Man on Fire) and featuring cinematography by Rose Bush (Colette), the film is a soulful meditation on music,  identity, and what it means to forge your own creative path. Part memoir, part music history, and part spiritual road trip, Finding Lucinda is ultimately a story about self-discovery, artistic bravery, and learning how to move forward — even when you’re unsure where the road will lead.  (FindingLucindaFilm.com) Disclaimer: Please double check event information with the event organizer as events can be canceled, details can change after they are added to our calendar, and errors do occur.
