Byron York

Byron has always been a lover of women. He's a romantic, and he loves all of his girlfriends the same way totally and completely. But he's grown restless in his middle-age, and recently he has found himself lost in some heavy thoughts about big things like God, and love, and time. So when a demon-obsessed televangelist suggests that he retreat from the chaos of the world, Byron escapes his town and embarks on a spiritual journey of the fantastic kind. In Lord Byron (Sundance 2011, New York Times Critics Pick), a deadpan Greek tragedy set in South Louisiana, a cast of bizarre, comedic characters, led by newcomer Paul Batiste, pursue uncommon dreams and missions of their own making. Director Zack Godshall (Low and Behold, God's Architects) and co-creator Ross Brupbacher share a kaleidoscopic world seen through the bloodshot eyes of Byron, a quixotic philosopher-poet and bayou Don Juan who seeks spiritual fulfillment by any means possible.
