Paul Iorio's mini-documentary presents audio from an interview he recorded with Lawrence Ferlinghetti in 2000, cut with material on City Lights, Ginsberg and the Howl obscenity case. Ferlinghetti was charged with publishing the book while his manager Shigeyoshi Murao was charged with selling it. Judge Clayton Horn acquitted them in October 1957.
