Driven, self-destructive choreographer and filmmaker Joe Gideon pushes himself to the breaking point, juggling the editing of a film, rehearsals for a new Broadway show, and a relentless personal life of affairs and excess. As his health collapses, Gideon's hallucinatory conversations with an angel of death become increasingly vivid. Bob Fosse's semi-autobiographical 1979 film musical is a dazzling, dark-humored meditation on creativity, perfectionism, and mortality.
