And on Friday, April 8, CityCenter Danbury invites the public to plunge into the philosophy and artistry of cult rocker Patti Smith while mixing and mingling with like-minded people who support the ongoing efforts of CityCenter to revitalize downtown. 

"Dream of Life" reveals a complicated charismatic personality of the “godmother of punk”.  Patti Smith who narrates the film, wrestles with life's many paradoxes and explores themes of spirituality, history and self-expression.  She defines the human experience as an overwhelming contradiction.  She pulls the strings of her guitar and simply makes music.
