In life, David Lynch was a wilfully obtuse cult filmmaker who had not been able to get a film financed for the last two decades of his life. In death, he is now in the pantheon of the all-time greats - both his work, and the man himself. He leaves behind an adjective, 'Lynchian', a term used to describe work that echoes his. And yet, only Lynch could be truly Lynchian. So why does his work affect people so deeply? Through a personal, first-person lens, Lynchian unpacks the mystery but refuses to solve the enigma of an artist who reshaped cinema from the inside out - where story gives way to dreams, and meaning lies not in answers, but in experience.
