- Summary
- Completed shortly after his April 1989 suicide, this film records a comic New York City "deli encounter" between sixties radical Abbie Hoffman (on the eve of his fiftieth birthday) and actress/filmmaker Nancy Cohen. In between servings of delicatessen specialties, the self-proclaimed "Jewish Road Warrior" offers feisty commentary on politics and youth from the 1960's to the 1980's, men and women, food and sex, life underground and in prison, fleeting fame, midlife crises and death. (Shot on location at Sarge's Deli in New York City).
