Synopsis

Pulitzer and Tony Award-winning playwright Tony Kushner (ANGELS IN AMERICA, CAROLINE OR CHANGE, HOMEBODY/KABUL) is the focus of this documentary. WRESTLING WITH ANGELS tells the story of a relentlessly creative spirit at work and of how Kushner, raised in the Deep South, would become an outspoken activist, a compassionate spokesperson for outsiders, and one of America's most creative playwrights.

Director, writer and producer Freida Lee Mock is an Academy and Emmy Award winning filmmaker who received the Oscar for the feature documentary MAYA LIN: A STRONG CLEAR VISION, about the designer of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial and the Civil Rights Memorial.
