‍Dear Mr. Brody recounts a wild true story: the hippie millionaire who captured the world’s attention when he pledged to give away his entire $25 million inheritance to anyone who could convince him of their need. Thousands of letters sat unopened until the filmmakers uncovered them recently, providing an unexpected rear-view glimpse at the hopes and dreams of Americans in the early 1970s. Director Keith Maitland’s previous doc was the widely acclaimed TOWER (2016), which retold the story of the 1966 campus shootings at UT Austin through animation.
