Robert Anton Wilson spent decades cultivating labels for himself: guerrilla ontologist, quantum psychologist, Discordian Pope, outer head of the Illuminati. This film assembles interview and lecture footage of him shot over 25 years, drawn from more than 100 hours of source material, to trace how a Playboy magazine editor became one of the stranger fixtures of American counterculture. It covers the writing of the Illuminatus! Trilogy with Robert Shea, his Cosmic Trigger memoirs, and the self-styled discipline he called "maybe logic," a habit of holding every belief, including his own, as probability rather than certainty. Wilson talks through his coinage "chapel perilous," the psychological state where paranoia and revelation become impossible to tell apart, and appears late in life still cracking jokes about mortality and mathematics in equal measure. There is no outside narrator standing in judgment; the film is built almost entirely from Wilson's own words, letting his ideas about synchronicity, conspiracy, and perception argue for themselves.
