The Poet and the Con is a 78 minute "personal voice" documentary about the relationship between the filmmaker, Eric Trules, a performance poet, and his uncle, Harvey Rosenberg, a career criminal and confessed murderer. It is also a film about family, crime, morality, and redemption – with poetry. Through his identification with his uncle, and in making the film, Trules attempts to come to terms with his own moral conflicts, and with his role as an artist/outsider in society at large.
