The director of a new Jerry Garcia documentary is hoping Grateful Dead fans will help him complete the project.

Malcolm Leo, who directed the 1981 Elvis Presley documentary This Is Elvis, is basing Jerry the Movie around an extensive interview he did with the late guitarist in 1987. Leo has launched a Kickstarter campaign to raise $400,000 to finance the film. Pledges are being accepted through December 22nd.
