Featuring rare footage and in-depth interviews, this documentary celebrates the life of The Notorious B.I.G. on his journey from hustler to rap king.
The sociological precision and crisp, articulate detail of the contributors made this documentary revelatory with regards to the motivations of a well-known subject. The fi lm presented the inevitability of themes of drugs and violence as a Shakespearian tragedy, even without focusing on Biggie’s death, and used never-before seen archive and music to tell a well-rounded story.
The marriage of poetry and science to create an exposing, challenging and brave fi lm really moved the judges. A touch of innocence and tenderness was added through conversations with the fi lmmakers’ children, which explored the science behind his illness. The sound design and edit were also commended as incredibly powerful, making the fi lm appear almost as an art installation at times, to truly elegant eff ect.
