In 1971 John Francis, known the world over as Planetwalker, witnessed an oil tanker collision in the San Francisco Bay. The sight of oiled birds on the shoreline caused him to give up motorized transport and rely solely on his own two feet and months after that he took a vow of silence, convinced that listening rather than adding fuel to any fire was the way ahead. He did not talk, but he kept on walking clear across the country and back again. At 77, John now both talks and rides in cars. By tracking down some of the characters he interacted with, we explore the weblike and sometimes deeply personal consequences of John’s decades of pilgrimage.
