Thank you for sharing.
The circle of life is like the oxygen that surrounds this planet.
Patti talked about this during camera solo press conference @ AGO 2013.
Thank you. Very moving and interesting, especially seeing the situation of Genet's grave.
Amazing. Genet is deeply important to me, as is Patti Smith. That she made gesture to the grave of Genet with this honor is uniquely precious.
Folks, if you haven’t, get the fortitude and read Genet.
Just started to read M Train today and this precious gift floated into my hands. Thank you!
I read about this in her second memoir. Great to see this film.

Danke dir Frieder Schlaich fur diesen schöne Kurzfilme
So so beautiful!
This is such a beautiful film. I especially like that it's in B&W which (to me) gives a better feel of the location.
Really enjoyed this
Jean Genet died in 1986, not 84. 15 April, 1986, a few hours before I was born.
1986 United States bombing of Libya, what she spoke of was the same date. Allegedly Hana Muammar Gaddafi was killed in the bombing.
Thank you for putting this strait I think you will not find a headstone there anymore the grave was vandalized some years ago he would have liked that. Came and went from this earth only his books and play's and a few short video's will live on and we few people who knew him will never forget
if you wonder who I am my name was Susan Maglia married to Jacques Maglia the son he never had who was with him to the END
I wondered about the date too; I definitely remember the bombing of Libya being in 1986. I was working in the UK that year and I remember it being talked about at work and in the media. And wasn't it ultimately proven, following Gaddafi's death many years later, that his young daughter Hana was not killed and was in fact still alive and well? I love Patti but sometimes she makes mistakes, like we all do.
regardless of the fact Jean Genet died in 1986 , very cool. love Genet, love Patti

Note: I am a fan, so don't get me wrong. However (with respect):
Musicians don't understand writers at all. I didn't like her condescending egotistical tone when she mentioned Jean Genet not "liking girls". Straight people are so full of shit about that. Especially women. Also, a woman that is straight and jokes about gay men does so for a reason that a straight man does not. As Quentin Crisp so rightly pointed out about homophobic men, the reason straight men are homophobic is because the moment they are forced to consider homosexuals they imagine having sex with a man. That frightens them. Sex is a powerful expression of human identity. It doesn't offend me, however. I understand fear. I think it is amusing, though.
Straight women, however, who talk about gay men are either forced to either do so with condescension, or egotistically. They can't help it. They have a powerful reproductive investment in men, that is to be understood as outside the will, so they cannot be despised for it. But my problem is the egoism of it. I want to say to all straight women: Get over yourself. You are not the only form of beauty. You are not the whole of the human story.
Women seem to want to dominate and define what love is absolutely. I have a friend who writes gay erotica (he is a gay man, but I won't mention the name he writes under or his actual name, because it could damage his professional status). He tells me that the gay male erotica publishing field is almost completely dominated be women publishers. He has told me stories about having to do rewrites and taking notes and criticisms from straight women on, as he puts it, "everything from what a gay man would 'really feel in love'..." to how to better write an oral sex scene and make it closer to reality in gay sex.'" In one email, he made me laugh. "They are literally telling me how to suck off a guy." Ladies, we know penises better.
I am gay. Listen, dear straight sisters, you don't understand. You are curious at best, and angry that you are not the source of his erection at worst.
Also, had she really wanted to meet him, she could have found time to do so. So, she doesn't strike me as much of a pilgrim. LOL.
Gosh Jean would have thought what a load of crap. This woman is nuts she really did know nothing about him. I did know Jean from 1962 to the 1970s he was at my wedding in 1964 he was one of my witnesses. Jacky stayed around seeing him when he was in need of friend he was there right to the end . I was in the USA by then. You really got the last piece right. Stay safe enjoy life. David Andersen
I also thought that was a strange sentence from her about Genet not possibly liking girls.
Read "Just Kids" and get over yourself ✌️
