The First Ten Years:
It’s All Worth Living For

A Full Length, Feature Documentary Directed by Alex Zarek

In 2020 — one month before the world shut down — Chicago-born videographer Alex Zarek flew to Albuquerque, New Mexico to spend a week with Levi (The Poet) Macallister: documenting his work, interviewing his friends and family, and capturing the places that have made Levi The Poetwhat it is.

We’re excited to feature his finished, full-length work: It’s All Worth Living For: The First 10 Years.

  • "Every week I'm blown away by the thoughts that you have and the way that you share them. I get to see a little bit into the perspective of someone who creates both for his own sake, and for the sake of others. You and your work in a human and relational way... is important to me."

  • "I can't begin to express how deeply thankful I am for your letters each week. I am left with something to ponder, wrestle with, and grow from. Thank you for your commitment to this letter and everything else that you are bold enough to share with the world."

  • "Your words are a source of comfort. Your music is calming. Your weekly email is the best thing to read on the train after a day of school work and training. I am grateful your words. The way you have been able to share so very much, also providing a new train of thought."
