Poignant and self-affirming, 'Left' is a genre-bending documentary that incorporates diverse interviews and breathtaking montage sequences backed by an original soundtrack featuring live recordings from local artists and street musicians met along the way. Throughout his trip, Nelson attempts to discover the answers to five questions - 1. What is happiness? 2. Do we communicate well as a society? 3. What is the importance of art and music? 4.
