Experimental filmmaker, photographer and visual artist Mark Borthwick has completed an elaborate package including a nearly 2-hour-long film of Cat Power playing solo outdoors in the countryside. Shot from a great distance in gloriously grainy color, and recorded with all the ambient sounds of nature, this film in the tradition of Warhol and Wiseman is a fascinating document.

The DVD also includes 3 nature films set to music from 'You Are Free', and a CD including a single 18-minute long unreleased song saga entitled "Willie Deadwilder," an outtake from the 'You Are Free' recording sessions.

In a slipcase with foldout digipak and 64-page perfect-bound book created and illustrated by Mark Borthwick.
