An authentic once-in-a-generation talent and a pure jazz artist, Amy Winehouse used her musical gifts to explore her own problems, and her raw honesty and talent combined to produce the kind of unforgettable music that garnered both critical and commercial success. That success, however, came with invasive media attention, which coupled with her precarious lifestyle and troubled relationships saw the young star's life begin to unravel. Amy Winehouse died from alcohol poisoning in July 2011 at the age of 27, and the BAFTA-winning director Asif Kapadia (Senna, The Warrior) shines a light on her story and the world we live in through this vital documentary.
