directed by Cole Ferraiuolo
Through a shifting jazz score that combines the heartfelt 1930s with the frenetic 1960s, Maggie's Riff is a time-bending examination into Jack Kerouac's memories. Provoked by nostalgia for his boyhood in small town Lowell and taunted by his first love, Maggie Cassidy, Jack tears though his past to separate the facts of his life from the fantasies of his novels.
