A close-up of Allen Ginsberg reciting his “skeletons” poem is bluescreened and dissolved against archival film and video clips, and backed by musicians to create a sort of song that becomes an American anthem.
Ballad of the Skeletons was directed by Gus Van Sant.
Ballad of the Skeletons runs for 4min, and was released in 1997.
