"In the Realms of the Unreal"
For those of you who like artist Henry Darger there is a great documentary of his life which features his work and his upbringing. It is very interesting and you can hear his story through various voices and they bring his drawings to life in animation. It is called "In the Realms of the Unreal", I strongly recommend it.
FYI(Henry Joseph Darger, Jr. (April 12(?), 1892–April 13, 1973) was a reclusive American writer and artist who worked as a custodian in Chicago, Illinois. He has become famous for his posthumously discovered 15,145-page, single-spaced fantasy manuscript called The Story of the Vivian Girls, in What is known as the Realms of the Unreal, of the Glandeco-Angelinnian War Storm, Caused by the Child Slave Rebellion, along with several hundred drawings and watercolor paintings illustrating the story. Darger's work has become one of the most celebrated examples of outsider art.)
