What's Nearby:
Additional Location Information
Rozensuite is a ground-floor bedsit with its own zen garden in front. It is attached to the owner's house. There is ample parking in front of the house.It is one of a group of newly built superior houses in a new area in Volta Mantovana, a beautiful village on the Morenic Hills which surround the foot of Lake Garda. Volta is in the Province of Mantova, although it is only minutes away from the Province of Verona and Lake Garda. The best way to reach Volta is to arrive by plane at either Milano ( Bergamo) or Verona (Villafranca) or Brescia (Montichiari). If you want to tour around it is best to hire a car at the airport.Exit from the Motorway at Peschiera and follow the signs to Volta Mantovana.
Just on the doorstep there's a cycle-path or footpath for the more active visitors. The path leads to the famous Borghetto - a really quaint Medieval hamlet with spectacular views from the Scaligero bridge over the R. Mincio with the stunning houses perched on top. Any artist dies for a place like this to paint.Another walk/cycle takes you to the falls on the R. Mincio at the new bridge of Pozzolo - 1 1/2 hrs there and back on foot.
No visit to Italy is complete without culture - This part of Italy is oozing with it. Every little village around Volta Mantovana has its own castle and church, its own typical restaurants, its own vineyards, its own festivals at various times of the year, its own exhibitions and concerts as well as colourful local fairs and markets. Apart from Borghetto, there is another little Medieval jewel - Castellaro, just 15 min. away - set on a little lake, a corner which takes you back to those old times. Again this is an artist's corner. Other villages along the road from Volta to Lake Garda are Monzambano, Valeggio,Pozzolengo, Ponti sul Mincio.
Peschiera, 15 min away, is the most southerly village on Lake Garda, and from there you can visit Desenzano (shoes and bags galore!), Sirmione (also famous for its Spas), Lazise, Bardolino (both famous for the beautiful promenade around the lake), Garda, Salò, Gardone, etc etc. You have certainly heard of all these well-known tourist resorts around the biggest lake in Europe! Gardaland is 30 min. from Volta - great fun! Don't miss it!
.Bike hire can be arranged.
In Volta itself, there are 16 bars, 10 excellent restaurants or pizza huts, fruit, vegetable and gourmet shops, a few clothes shops, ice-cream parlours, 3 bakers for fresh bread and pasta, the wonderful Historic Centre right at the top of the hill with the church, the Gonzaga's Villa with its beautiful boxed gardens, the Scuderie (Stables).
For those who love walking or cycling there is a path right outside the door which leads to the bridge and waterfall at the famous R.Mincio. While admiring the scenery, one can sit at the bar and have a snack or refreshment. If one wants to venture further, the path leads to Borghetto, Peschiera, Goito and Mantova.
Borghetto and Castellaro are world-famous Medieval Hamlets 10 minutes by car in opposite directions from the house.
Peschiera, at the foot of Lake Garda, is a 15 minute car drive. From there, one can visit the other villages around the lake either by car or by boat - trips to Bardolino, Desenzano, Lazise, Garda, Gardone, Salò - all familiar names in the tour brochures!
Gardaland can be reached by bus from Peschiera, or a 20 min. drive from Volta Mantovana.
Verona can be reached from Peschiera by train or a 30 min. drive by car.
Mantua can be reached by bus from Volta Mantovana, or a 30 min. drive by car.
Brescia can be reached by train from Peschiera or a 30 min. drive by car.
Volta Mantovana is equidistant from Milano and Venice - both easily reached by car on the motorway, entering at the Peschiera Toll, or by train from Peschiera.
Water sports and swimming pools are near at hand in the summer.
There is an indoor swimming pool with renowned thermal baths (sulphuric) 15 min. away at Rivalta. (The Airone)
Peschiera and Valpolicella (30 mins away) offer health farms (with sulphuric baths) on a daily basis.
For Culture Lovers there is a myriad of wonderful places to visit - Mantua, Verona and Brescia, not to mention Venice which is only one hour away, and the best of concerts and operas to go to. There is a wonderful tour guide, Dott. Lorenzo Bonoldi who can show you everything. He is the only one suggested in the Lonely Planet and Trip Advisor!

QuESt - Were Going Down
Artist: QuESt
Producer: Ace2euce
Album: The Reason: A Defence Mechanism
Avg Rating: 3.5 ( 22 total votes )
As I've recently noted, rappers' usage of flight/altitude-based metaphors has been at an all-time, um, high, lately. Always the nonconformist, QuESt has elected to title his new single, an ambitious meditation on fame, fortune and the grind, "Were Going Down." Title aside, the track is anthemic motivational music through and through, from producer Ace2euce's synth-scorching, "ay"-laced boardwork, to the soaring hook, performed by West Palm Beach R&B songstress Ms. Neo. For his part, the headliner comes with some appropriately determined rhymes, advising his peers "Just race your best and you can make it where you wanna be." but warning against getting too caught up in the superficial pleasures of the LavishLuxurious life. Is QuESt making the right moves in his journey to superstardom? That's for you to decide. In any case, fans should stay tuned for the latest on The Reason: A Defense Mechanism, which currently lacks a solid release date.

Tattoo Aftercare
Using Coconut Oil for Your Tattoo
A testimonial from a fan…
"My journey with skinfare began with our new tats. My other half and I went and got some fresh ink. Upon it being completed I asked the artist if I could purchase some tattoo goo. He informed me that they no longer stocked that item and A&D would be just as good. I was so bummed out. I take pride in my work and like that fresh look to it and A&D just doesn't give that effect. Luckily I came into work and started reading up about skinfare. We both used it on our ink and they look amazing. They didn't even scab up or peel. First time ever. We now use it from our tattoos to our daughter's bottom. She has sensitive skin and we have used almost everything to prevent diaper rash but now we don't have to try anything else because skinfare is all she needed. Mom's happy, dad's happy & baby is thrilled that we found skinfare."
-Torrin Slover
Why Tattoo Aftercare is Equally as Important as the Artwork Itself
No matter who you're talking to, the argument of how to care for your tattoo is one that dates back to Sailor Jerry's days and continues in both social and professional worlds. And for good reason—if your tattoo aftercare isn't taken seriously, you could end up with a variety of not-so-lovely situations, such as:
Loss of Color or Dis-Coloration
Scabbed and Scarred Skin
Infected Skin
(Thunder Cake is the perfect combination of ingredients to safely soothe and protect your tattoo)
Natural Tattoo Aftercare Recommendations:
Every artist should give you a take-home sheet with his or her personal recommendations. However, it is up to you to do the research and decide if you would like to heal your artwork in a natural way, free of the traditionally touted petroleum and chemical based ointments, or use other suggested tattoo aftercare recommendations. Regardless of your decision, may we suggest our all-natural healing alternatives like coconut oil, palm fruit oil, beeswax and castor oil — the base ingredients found in all of our SkinFare sticks! Here is our step-by-step tattoo aftercare recommendation:
Remove Bandage after Two to Four Hours & Cleanse
Rinse Your New Tattoo Indirectly with Warm Water
Apply SkinFare Lightly for optimal tattoo aftercare results. Once your inkwork is good and dry, it's time to apply something to begin healing and soothing it. And this is where you'll commonly hear all kinds of artists long-loved tattoo aftercare recommendations differ (read more on this below).
Continue to Wash & Re-apply SkinFare 2-3 Times Daily: we're constantly coming into contact with dirt and debris in the air, so it's critical that you keep your new ink love clean and healing so you can show that thang off on your next night out on the town.
Skip the Petroleum-based stuff and Replenish your New Ink with Natural Tattoo Aftercare
In the past, Petroleum Jelly was the bees knees and go-to tattoo aftercare healer for anyone with ink. The staples were Vaseline and A&D ointment and still are by many today. And while petroleum jelly can help damaged skin, do we really want to smear the by-products of crude oil on a newly opened wound? I think not. It's also notorious for causing breakouts and rashes, clogging pores and eliminates the ability for your skin to breathe, therefore trapping the natural secretion of toxins that would and should be released from an open wound. So skip the breakouts, suffocation, and infection in your tattoo aftercare play-by-play, and lather up your rockin' new ink with epic natural ingredients from SkinFare!

Another Grand Island drainage project is nearing completion.
G.I. Public Works Director John Collins says the Stagecoach Detention Cell could be completely redone in the next two weeks.
Collins says he's already getting positive feedback on the project from the community.
But, in many parts of town Monday flash flooding followed heavy rains.
The city has more than eight projects – not counting sub-projects - in the works to help with drainage.
Collins says a stretch of road near the intersection of Webb Road and Faidley Avenue is on the list because it is impassable after a hard rain.
That project hasn't started yet.
A study should be completed in the next one to two years to determine what else can be done.
"It's not like there's one overwhelming cause, but there are continual issues almost everywhere you look," said Collins. "All those together cause the water in the basements, the water standing in the ditches."
Collins says half of the city could see a difference when the North Morris Creek Detention cell project is completed in another two to three years.
Another big project starts next summer. That's when G.I. gets new equipment to clean the storm drains.
Collins says, in some areas, they're 90 percent clogged.
"We could keep it running 24/7 for years before we get the whole system clean," said Collins.
The Street Department recently tested the equipment downtown and there was so much dirt it took a week to clean one block.

Crawley named to deputy county manager position
She becomes second African-American appointed to post this year
Jane D. Crawley has been named Henrico's deputy county manager for community services, effective Sept. 8.
Crawley, who currently serves as director of the county's Department of Social Services, will succeed George T. Drumwright Jr., who is retiring after more than 34 years in the position. County Manager Virgil Hazelett announced the appointment today.
The move continues an increase in diversity among Henrico's top appointed and elected officials. Crawley becomes the second African-American appointed this year to serve as one of five deputy county managers, following Tim Foster, who is the deputy county manager for community operations.
The Board of Supervisors also includes two African-American members: longtime Fairfield District Supervisor Frank Thornton and newly elected Varina District Supervisor Tyrone Nelson, whose term began in January.
One more vacancy will occur in the county's senior leadership when Deputy County Manager for Special Services Angela Harper retires officially later this year.
As deputy county manager for community services, Crawley will have direct responsibilities over Henrico Area Mental Health and Developmental Services, Social Services, the Henrico County Health Department, the Juvenile Detention Home and James River Juvenile Detention Center, the Community Corrections program and the Capital Region Workforce Partnership — agencies with combined budgets of more than $65 million and nearly 600 employees. Her portfolio also includes county programs and services funded by the Virginia Juvenile Community Crime Control Act.
Crawley began her Henrico career in 1991 as a casework supervisor in Social Services. She also worked as the department's assistant director before being named director in January 2006.
A Richmond native, Crawley earned a bachelor's degree in social work from Norfolk State University and received a master's degree in public administration from Virginia Commonwealth University. She has served on the board of directors of Henrico Court Appointed Special Advocates and was appointed to the Virginia Child Fatality Review Team. She currently is a member of the Virginia League of Social Services Executives, the Child Welfare Advisory Committee and the Virginia Association of Local Human Services Administrators.

Logos Run (Jak Rebo Series #1)
Posted February 9, 2008
Logos apparently runs out of time
Dietz is generally one of my favorite authors and I thought he did a wonderful job setting up the story line in the first book of the series, Runner. However, while Logos Run keeps your continuing interest in the tale and the characters, it feels like Dietz simply runs out of time and seems to hurry through the action packed ending. I was left with a feeling that surely there should be another couple of chapters to tie up loose ends.Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback.

In the very far distant future, an interstellar civilization developed that spread throughout the distant star systems. Humanity advanced because of star gates which allowed instant travel from one planet to another no matter what star system they were in. The star gates went offline after revolution decimated whole systems and the long slide into barbarianism has begun. Few star gates remain operational with most of those run by the mysterious Techno Society whose leader is Omar Tepho.---------------- Runner Jak Rebo, sensitive Lonni Nor, heavy worlder Bo Hoggless and sentient A.I. Logos are on the planet Thara keeping a promise to a dead man, Lysander who in an early age was the Emperor Hios. His corrupt rule instigated the revolution and now he wants to make amends by having Logos install itself on the plant Sprocket so that the AI can start reseeding the star gates to enable civilization to climb back to its former glory. Tepho wants control of the star gates and as the heroes travel from planet to planet for reasons known only to the crafty Logos, Tepho and his minion are either there or one stop behind them. ----------------- Williams C. Dietz is one of the grandmasters of space opera. LOGOS RUN is full of action adventure, intrigue and surprises as the protagonists strive to do what is best for humanity by not letting the star gates fall into hands where they would be used to rule over mankind. Logos almost steals the show as he has his own agenda and manipulates those around to help him carry out his plans. The well thought out storyline is populated by interesting characters representing a civilization on a downward spiral.------------ Harriet KlausnerWas this review helpful?

Toronto Mayor Rob Ford ends diet amid national media coverage: Queen's University expert
Queen's University political behavior expert Melanee Thomas is available to comment on Toronto mayor Rob Ford's public decision to stop dieting. The end of the Cut The Waist Challenge, where Mayor Ford was looking to lose 50 pounds, has garnered national media attention.
"I would compare Ford to Michelle Obama," says Dr. Thomas. "The weight of public officials isn't really relevant to the exercise of their jobs. Michelle Obama was critiqued unnecessarily for her diet while trying to engage in healthy initiatives for children for political reasons. In light of this, I think it's worth asking why we care about Ford's weight and diet."
Dr. Thomas is a Skelton-Clark Post-Doctoral Fellow in the Queen's Political Studies Department.

November 2011 issue | Professor's research earns inaugural NSF Innovation Corps award
Subscribe Unsubscribe
From a UNT News Service press release
Ram Dantu
You are zipping along on the interstate when, all of a sudden, traffic comes to a dramatic halt. We've all experienced that familiar frustration, but Ram Dantu, professor of computer science and engineering, is working to make these dangerous driving situations a thing of the past.
Dantu recently received an Innovation Corps award from the National Science Foundation to develop his Mobile Life Guard program for a commercial audience. He is the only professor in Texas to receive one of the inaugural I-Corps awards, and one of only 21 awardees in the country.
Dantu's program will allow drivers to integrate their smartphones with their cars' on-board computers. Through the integration, the smartphone will be able to analyze driver behavior and road conditions, and then send alerts to the driver or other drivers in the area. For instance, the program could alert drivers of construction delays ahead, poor weather conditions or that a driver ahead of them is braking for a speed bump.
The I-Corps program will give Dantu and his team access to guidance from private- and public-sector experts, a specially designed training curriculum and $50,000 of seed money.
Dantu's team will include a student entrepreneur and a mentor. Brandon Gadzick, a computer science and engineering student, will fulfill the student role, and Alan Kushner, former chief technology advisor for the National Transportation Safety Board, will serve as the team mentor. In October, the team members traveled to Stanford University to participate in the NSF I-Corps curriculum kickoff.
The I-Corps program selects up to 25 teams on a quarterly basis to assess the commercial viability of their previously supported basic research.

U.S. soldiers reportedly raided communal cellblocks at Guantanamo Prison in Cuba and hustled hunger striking inmates at gunpoint into single, maximum security cells on Saturday. According to the Miami Herald, prison authorities conducted the maneuver only hours after International Commitee of the Red Cross personnel left the island and under a complete media blackout.
Prisoners reportedly tried to fight back with improvised weapons, but submitted to guards after four "less-than-lethal" shots were fired. A statement from the prison camp at the U.S. Navy base in Cuba said that there were no serious injuries among guards or detainees.
The action by U.S. forces was an attempt to end a hunger strike by a majority of the camp's 166 inmates that began after a "particularly aggressive" cell search on February 6, said lawyers for the detainees. Reported mistreatment of the Quran prompted inmates to cover security cameras in some areas and block access to food carts for weeks at a time.
The military denied any Quran mistreatment, and said that systematic disobedience of prison rules prompted the raid.
"In order to reestablish proper observation, the guards entered the Camp 6 communal living spaces to transition detainees into single cells, remove obstructions to cameras, windows and partitions, and to assess the medical condition of each detainee," the prison said.
Simon Schorno of the International Red Cross said that his organization was in no way connected to the raid, and therefore "will not comment on its objectives, the way it was conducted or the detainees' response to it."

Tacoma city leaders look to King County homeless camps as model for 'best practices'
Like it? Share it!
Tacoma may soon have another option for its homeless population: temporary homeless camps. The city of Tacoma is considering amendments to city code that would regulate where and how tent camps operate.
A state law passed in 2010 authorizes religious organizations to host temporary homeless camps on property owned or controlled by the organization. City of Tacoma planning and housing officials are looking to Tent City 3 in Seattle and Tent City 4 in Sammamish as models for how to establish rules for camps.
These regulations include a maximum occupancy of 100 residents per camp, a limit of two camps operating within the city, a minimum number of showers and parking spaces, and considerations for public awareness.
"This is just another tool in the toolbox," Tacoma Councilmember Lauren Walker said of the proposed rules. She said a tent camp is currently unnecessary in Tacoma, "But we want to make sure we have regulations in place if there is a larger homeless need."
A 2013 point-in-time count found 120 unsheltered people in Pierce County.
Colin DeForrest, the city of Tacoma's homeless services manager, said in an email interview that the city of Tacoma is setting aside money to provide services to homeless people.
Neil Rogers, a founding member of Tent City Tacoma, said city officials are doing a good job trying to help homeless people, but it's not enough.
"There are still gaps in the system," he said.
Tent City Tacoma, a group advocating for encampments, has been involved in creating regulations for Tacoma. The group has offered to partner with a church to help establish a camp in the city.
Tent camps are an alternative, Rogers said, to the restrictions imposed by indoor shelters. Shelters have curfews, religious affiliation and other requirements that may keep some people from using them.
Tent camps involve members in operations and in establishing community standards. In this way, tent camps have the potential to be a unique and positive space, Rogers said.
City of Tacoma Principal Planner John Harrington said in his visits to Tent City 3 and 4, he was impressed with how members were involved in self-regulating the camps, earning their keep and adhering to rules. A main policy of these seasoned camps was to be a good neighbor to the neighborhood they were in and to create goodwill, Harrington said.
"In Tacoma, we're trying to emulate all the best practices of these other camps already in existence," Harrington said.
Rogers, of Tent City Tacoma, agrees that King County's tent camps are a good model for Tacoma.
"It's going to be an organized thing, and it's going to be designed specifically to gather all the scattered camps around here and get them into one place so they can start getting resources and start getting help," he said.
"We're here to get you into a warm and safe place where you can be empowered to take responsibility and accountability for your own life," Rogers said.
Final changes to the amendment will be voted on at the first reading April 15. The Tacoma City Council will make its final vote on the ammendment April 22.

Starting Monday, three of the four upper-level lanes of the George Washington Bridge will be closed overnight for the next 12 weeks for construction, the Port Authority of New York & New Jersey announced in a release this week.
According to the release, the project will work on the upper-level deck rehabilitation project, and will close the lanes from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m. Monday through Thursday, and from 10 p.m. to 10 a.m. Friday into Saturday. There will not be closures on weekend nights, the announcement said.
Construction will alternate between the eastbound and westbound lanes.
During Yankee games and MetLife Stadium events, the closures will not begin until an hour after the event ends, the notice said.
Though trucks must use the upper level, the Port Authority urged drivers to use the lower level during the construction period.
"During overnight deck rehabilitation work last summer, delays peaked at 60-75 minutes on the upper level during construction, while the lower level saw minimal or no delays on most nights," the PA said in the release.
The construction is part of a $199 million project for the rehabilitation of the George Washington Bridge's upper level structural steel deck. It is slated for completion in 2015, and is forecasted to extend the life of the bridge by 15 to 20 years.

GODAWFULNOISE, PAROXYSMAL BUTCHERING, IDOLS PLAGUE & CLAWS UP $3 DOORS: 8 PM / SHOW: 9 PM GODAWFULNOISE is a Grindcore band repping Phoenix, AZ. Past members or current members of AZDG, Sunyata, Warfair, E.T.T.S., Deadwrong, Conflict Resolution, He Who Binds Himself, and Blodskam. PAROXYSMAL BUTCHERING: Romanticizing rape, torture and cannibalism since 2007, PAROXYSMAL BUTCHERING consistently delivers slamming, guttural sickness, exemplifying the essence of Brutal Death Metal, while incorporating elements of Grindcore and Black Death into a full scale aural fist fuck of blasting perversity. Churning out misanthropic disgust from the festering bowels of Southern California, Paroxysmal Butchering has worked hard to establish a loyal fan base, worldwide, and create music that is both ferocious and unyielding, yet memorable. As a band, Paroxysmal Butchering continues to assert itself as the premier, up and coming purveyor of ear drum punishing, genital obliterating brutality. IDOLS PLAGUE blend the discordance of Converge, Pig Destroyer, Magrudergrind, Wormrot & Brainoil into their own molotov cocktail. Based out of Oakland California, A creation inspired by the negligence and frustration of sitting still. By complacent, unchallenged ears and minds that provoke an excuse for us to explode frantically, spiritually, aggressively, without a second thought of tomorrow. CLAWS UP: 3 piece,death punching ghoulish raping grindviolence band in the vein of Warsore, Cripple Bastards, Rott, In Disgust & Impaled.

With fewer brands to choose from, Keurig 2.0 is more restrictive than the last generation, and the K500 doesn't do much to make up for it. As upgrades go, this one doesn't make sense.
Skitch's quick-and-simple photo annotations are certainly a nice addition to the Evernote suite of products, but we still wish it had a few more tools in its belt.

Sure, it costs a bundle, but the Sony Xperia Z2 is everything you should expect from a top-end phone. Its impressive performance rivals the Samsung Galaxy S5 for smartphone top dog, but the Z2's slick glass and metal design trumps the S5's plastic body. If you're looking for both style and substance from a phone, you've come to the right place.
The design of Toshiba's high-end Kirabook hasn't changed since last year, but it has aged gracefully. The components get an update and the battery life gets a big boost, making this an all-around excellent, but expensive, ultrabook.
While they aren't for bass lovers, the SR325e headphones deliver very open, detailed sound that makes for exciting listening.
Sony's thin, powerful Tap 11 tablet shows up the competition in terms of design. It's not ideal for everyone, but only a few tweaks away from being the runaway leader in this smallish category.
Samsung Gear Fit was a tiny step. Simband might be the beginning of Samsung's bigger health push.

Much progress has been made in representing African-American life onscreen, but there's a long way to go.
An updated list of the theatrical venues and VOD platforms currently screening "Life Itself."
A documentary featuring Stephen Segerman, Dennis Coffey, Mike Theodore, Dan Dimaggio, Jerome Ferretti, Steve Rowland, Willem Moller, Craig Bartholomew-Strydom, Ilse Assmann, Steve M. Harris, Robbie Mann, Clarence Avant, Eva Rodriguez, Sixto Rodriguez, Regan Rodriguez, Sandra Rodriguez-Kennedy, Rick Emmerson, Rian Malan.
Do some stories exist only because we need them to? "Searching for Sugar Man" is about a gifted singer-songwriter from Detroit who was an enigma. His face half-hidden by long flowing hair and dark glasses, he sang in folk music bars with his back turned to the audience. His name was Sixto Rodriguez.
He was so good that without fame or a large fan base, he signed a two-album contract with Sussex and A&R Records. The first album, "Cold Fact," got a rare four-star review from Billboard. Neither it nor the second one, "Coming From Reality," sold well, the contract was dropped, and the story seemed to end there.
Nothing else was heard from Sixto Rodriguez. But several years later, his albums traveled half the world away, to Cape Town, South Africa, where bootleg copies passed from hand to hand and his songs became anthems of the anti-apartheid movement. When an indie record store owner named Stephen Segerman released them commercially, they took off, the first selling 500,000 copies, which in that nation would be comparable to the Beatles or Elvis Presley.
This documentary by Swedish director Malik Bendjelloul moves between Detroit and Cape Town, speaking to such influential South Africans as Rian Malan about the impact Rodriguez had at the time. But what about the singer himself? Nothing was known. Rumors spread that he was dead — a suicide, who killed himself onstage by shooting himself or setting himself afire. Absolutely no evidence existed to support such theories, which by their sensational nature would hardly have passed unnoticed. In the absence of information the mystery only grew, about a man who was known only by his music, and even whose face was hardly clear.
The rise of the Internet made it easier for Segerman to search for his best-selling star (whose royalties went to A&M Records). Segerman himself began to be called "Sugarman," after the title of one of Rodriguez's songs. In the film, he emerges as one of those figures independent music depends upon — always there in his store, supporting and listening to music he believes in, spreading the gospel. In the case of Rodriguez, the gospel had already spread through South Africa on its own, propelled by the power of the songs.
There was no mention of Rodriguez on the net. Segerman posted a Web page about his search. In the late 1990s he received a comment on that page — no, not from Rodriguez but from someone who had information. If there is any chance you know nothing about this film, I am not going to reveal its ending. Let me just say it is miraculous and inspiring.
"Searching for Sugar Man" is a documentary that enlists us in the process of its search. Using archival footage, it shows both Segerman and Bendjelloul pressing ahead in a quest that became increasingly frustrating. The information they eventually dislodge about Rodriguez suggests a secular saint, a deeply good man, whose music is the expression of a blessed inner being. I hope you're able to see this film. You deserve to. And yes, it exists because we need for it to.
White privilege, lived.
