The film – which is based in real events – revolves around the relationship between Ginsberg, Kerouac and Carr.

Ginsberg – who was openly gay – was a leading figure of the Beat Generation in 1940s and ’50s New York City, a movement that was highly critical of American materialism, censorship and conformity.

His friendship with fellow writer Kerouac began when the men were introduced by Ginsberg’s Columbia dormmate Carr, who was later sentenced to first-degree manslaughter in the killing of David Kammerer, a friend of fellow Beat Generation figure William S. Burroughs who had become infatuated with him.
