Alter Egos

Ryan Larkin and Chris Landreth are alter egos. Ryan was a world-famous animator and an Oscar nominee. Now he panhandles on the street. Chris, a rising star in animation, is beginning to experience the adulation Ryan saw decades earlier. In this poignant study of artists, addiction and creativity, director Laurence Green explores these renowned filmmakers and the reasons for their divergent paths. Alter Egos also includes the animated documentary Ryan, where Chris tells part of the story.
