    • Synopsis
    • Roll Bus Roll casts an eye at the life and art of Jeffrey Lewis, one of the most prominent musicians
      associated with NYC's anti-folk scene.
      The film opens with an exploration of the anti-folk, offering a glimpse into the unique movement that
      challenges traditional folk conventions. Then the viewer follows Jeffrey on tour, across cities and
      continents.
      Jeffrey, is a self-deprecating genius, introduced through contrasting narratives: his own modest selfassessment,

      health struggles that impacted his relationship.
