A musical documentary about soul legend Donny Hathaway, chronicling his life. In the second half, his mental illness becomes increasingly apparent, making the documentary poignant, intense, and emotional.

Quite an atypical documentary that didn't quite grab me. The second half, in particular, has some wonderful moments. Incidentally, I wasn't previously aware of the somber and tragic context surrounding Hathaway's end.
