Billy Preston: That's The Way God Planned It
Executive Producer
With his signature gospel sound on the Hammond B3, Billy Preston doublehandedly elevated the greatest artists of his time – from the Beatles to the Rolling Stones, from Aretha Franklin to Eric Clapton, from Ray Charles to Barbra Streisand to Sly and the Family Stone. In our film, we explore Billy's career and influence on generations of musicians, as he scored several number one hits of his own and became one of the most sought-after musicians in the world. He did all of this as a soul divided -- by his deep roots in the church, in constant conflict with his identity as a gay Black man, searching for a family of his own that would accept him for who he was.
Lil Nas X: Long Live Montero
Producer
A remarkably intimate portrait of an artist on tour navigating identity, family, expectations, and acceptance, all while reflecting on his place within the legacy of Black, queer performers.
Little Richard: I Am Everything
Producer
Little Richard: I Am Everything tells the story of the Black queer origins of rock n' roll. It explodes the whitewashed canon of American pop music to reveal the innovator - the originator - Richard Penniman. Through a wealth of archive and performance that brings us into Richard's complicated inner world, the film unspools the icon's life story with all its switchbacks and contradictions.
The Thief Collector
Producer
In 1985, Willem de Kooning’s “Woman-Ochre,” one of the most valuable paintings of the 20th century, vanished into the Arizona desert after being cut from its frame at the University of Arizona Museum of Art. 32 years later, the $160 million painting was found hanging in the home of Jerry and Rita Alter in rural New Mexico.
Feels Good Man
Producer
Quando o personagem de quadrinhos indie Pepe the Frog se torna um ícone involuntário de ódio, seu criador, o artista Matt Furie, luta para trazer Pepe de volta da escuridão e navegar pela divisão cultural da América.
Serei amado quando morrer
Co-Executive Producer
No final de sua carreira, o lendário diretor Orson Welles já não era mais o queridinho de Hollywood que fez sucesso com "Cidadão Kane". Um artista em processo de envelhecimento e aparentemente sem sorte, ele passou seis anos batalhando para tentar concluir "The Other Side of the Wind", o filme que ele acreditava que seria seu grande retorno. Com sua morte em 1985, o projeto acabou, permanecendo em um cofre sem ser terminado por quatro décadas. Imagens inéditas de Welles se unem a entrevistas com o elenco e a equipe do filme para contar a história do fim de sua carreira.
Fred Rogers: O Padrinho da Criançada
Producer
Por mais de trinta anos, e através de seu programa de televisão, Fred Rogers (1928-2003), apresentador, produtor, escritor e pianista, acompanhado de seus bonecos e seus muitos amigos, falou diretamente com crianças pequenas sobre alguns dos assuntos mais importantes da vida.
