Let's Get Lost

Overview

Let's Get Lost offers an intimate look at jazz legend Chet Baker, juxtaposing vibrant footage from the 1950s West Coast Cool scene with his later, troubled years. Viewers witness the striking young Baker in California and Italy, where his talents flourished alongside personal turmoil, including multiple brushes with the law due to substance abuse. In stark contrast, the film captures an older Baker, emotionally distant and physically altered. Through interviews with his children, ex-wife, romantic partners, and fellow musicians, the documentary paints a poignant portrait of a gifted artist's rise and fall.
