Rochester Premiere | Q&A. Pete Cecere is a collector of folk and outsider art from the Americas. Over his fifty years of collecting, he has amassed more than five thousand pieces, all stored in his own home, his self-styled “House of Stronzo.” As Cecere ages, and as the appreciation of folk art has expanded, he is concerned about where his collection will find a new home. Enter the San Antonio Museum of Art, which agrees to mount an exhibition and honor him for capturing a segment of art that might have been lost if not for him. 

Followed by a Q&A with both the director and the scoring musician on the film.
