This brief TV-friendly length documentary about the life, history, relationships, politics and works of the influential (and still relatively underrated) science fiction author Ursula K. Le Guin takes the form of a strange and evocative collage of beautiful moments, shifting paintings, talking heads, beautiful landscapes, press cuttings and so on. It never settles on one topic for long and only has a loose chronological structure. I thought it was rather evocative and my partner, a lifelong Guin fan was beguiled by it and learnt a lot. A solid piece of work and made me keen to delve into her enormous bibliography.

Plot summary
Decades before Hogwarts, Ursula K. Le Guin invited young readers to wizard school in her classic Earthsea fantasy series, and dazzled the science fiction world with masterworks like The Left Hand of Darkness and The Dispossessed. Worlds of Ursula K. Le Guin tells the groundbreaking author's story in her own words, sprinkled with stunning animation and commentary from literary luminaries like Margaret Atwood, Neil Gaiman, David Mitchell, and Michael Chabon. Produced with Le Guin's participation over ten years, Worlds of Ursula K. Le Guin is a breathtaking journey through the late writer's career and her worlds, both real and fantastic.
