Review of Searching for Sugar Man (2012) by Ahsan H — 31 Dec 2012
A fascinating story of a an individual's life, his hardships, the suffering and how he transformed all of that into the music. Honestly, I'd never heard of Rodriguez before and it is shameful that we remained unknown to a fantastic musician and a wonderful human being.
Don't read about this documentary to decide whether you wanna watch it or not, whether you'd like it or not, just watch it. This is so inspirational (it actually inspired a lot of people in South Africa to stand for what's right, to make a stand against corrupted government).
It moves you emotionally. Teaches you a whole lot of lessons such as about the insights of the music industry, hard work, living your life in a simple way regardless of how famous you actually are, and the fact that there is always somebody in the world who is appreciating your talent regardless of distance, color, race and generation which is quite astonishing.
Searching for Sugar Man is easily one of the most wonderful documentaries of 2012.
