Where Does a Body End? (2019)

The worldview of Michael Gira, through his life as a globetrotter and his four decades leading Swans, a group that he founded in the noisy and iconoclastic New York underground of the early '80s and that keeps reinventing itself today.

A sweeping view of Michael Gira and his band Swans' history (although it mysteriously skips the Angels of Light phase) does a good job depicting their music, philosophy and development over the decades, although it mainly appeals to those already familiar with the band.
