IMDB

A group of students at the University of California Santa Cruz wants to unlock the archive of the famous counterculture icon Timothy Leary (1920-1996) for the Internet generation. This "sci-fi" documentary alternates archive footage with new material that the students in part filmed themselves, and Dr. Leary's charisma still seems to have a hold on contemporary youth.
