Dec 23, 2018 Interesting, enjoyable, very good overview. See more Dec 5, 2018 so amazing, Ursula, the doc, everything! See more Oct 9, 2018 Saw at the Mill Valley Film festival yesterday. A solid documentary, very professional and well researched. Ursula K. Le Guin was an original-- her story is quite inspiring.
