Acclaimed documentary by Matt Wolf that tells the story of highly revered, avant-garde composer, singer-songwriter, cellist, and disco producer Arthur Russell. A character in the no-wave scene of downtown NYC in the 70s/80s, Russell created beautiful, idiosyncratic music that spanned the genres of disco, folk, electro and post punk.

An involving, emotive film, 'Wild Combination' features some rare footage and touching commentary from the closest people in his life; immediate family, friends and admirers such as Philip Glass and poet, Allen Ginsberg. Essential viewing.
