Documental sobre la famosa cantante británica Amy Winehouse, que cuenta con imágenes inéditas de archivo y entrevistas con la malograda estrella, que murió en julio del 2011 a los veintisiete años de edad por parada cardíaca a consecuencia de sus excesos con las drogas y el alcohol, adicciones agravadas por su bulimia. Amy Winehouse, ganadora de seis Premios Grammy, se vio desde muy joven afectada por el divorcio de sus padres. Tenía un talento natural para el jazz y el soul y una voz prodigiosa que pronto la convirtió en una estrella mundial a pesar de lanzar sólo dos discos; pero la fama, la prensa sensacionalista, los intereses de la industria -y de su entorno- y su turbulento amor con el que fue su marido, Blake Fielder-Civil, la condujeron finalmente a su trágico destino en su piso de Camden, Londres.

Documentary which highlights cockney duo Chas & Dave's rich, unsung pedigree in the music world and a career spanning 50 years, almost the entire history of UK pop. They played with everyone from Jerry Lee Lewis to Gene Vincent, toured with The Beatles, opened for Led Zeppelin at Knebworth - and yet are known mainly just for their cheery singalongs and novelty records about snooker and Spurs. The film also looks at the pair's place among the great musical commentators on London life - and in particular the influence of music hall on their songs and lyrics. The film crew followed Chas & Dave on their final tour, having called it a day after the death of Dave's wife, and blends live concert footage with archive backstory, including some astonishing early performances and duets with the likes of Eric Clapton. Among the experts and zealous fans talking about their love of the duo are Pete Doherty, Jools Holland and Phill Jupitus. Narrated by Arthur Smith.
