SEARCHING FOR SUGAR MAN – another one of this year’s Oscar contestants – tells the incredible true story of Rodriguez, the greatest ’70s rock icon who never was. Discovered in a Detroit bar in the late ’60s after recording his first two well received but non-selling albums, he disappeared. Over three centuries later two South African fans set out to discover what happened to their musical hero.
A great story, produced by the creators of Man on Wire and Project Nim and animated by the incredible Passion Pictures (authors of the Gorillaz videos, Belly and tons of other great stuff). I only wish there was a bit more of that animation!
