Synopsis
SEE YOU TOMORROW is a hybrid documentary which follows Beverly Glenn-Copeland and his wife Elizabeth on an intimate and moving journey as they navigate the implications of Glenn’s recent diagnosis and embark on a mission to preserve his artistic legacy. They perform a series of final concerts and performances alongside some of the artists who have cited Glenn as an inspiration — including Sam Smith, Robyn, Solange and Blood Orange. They produce a musical children’s television series with Glenn as host, performing alongside handmade puppets. They co-write a memoir, published by Penguin Random House, sharing stories from Glenn’s life. Through these expressions, Glenn and Elizabeth deepen their devoted marriage and work to fulfill Glenn’s artistic mission with the time he has left, sharing his radiant and singular spirit with the world.
