Grace Jones’ life story is to be retold via the documentary ‘Grace Jones: Bloodlight & Bami’, the very first comprehensive film to examine the icon’s past.
Production on the release kicked off five years ago and hopes to introduce viewers to a version of Grace they’ve never seen before via footage pulled from interviews, performances and moments prised from her colourful private life.
Its director Sophie Fiennes shares…
This film began in a collaborative creative spirit. Grace had fiercely controlled her public image, but made the bold decision to un-mask. She never sought to control my shooting process, and I didn’t second-guess the narrative of the film as I was shooting. I just gathered evidence. The film is a deliberately present-tense experience; for me this is the thrill-ride of verité cinema.
Keep it locked on TGJ for details on its release date.
The G.j docu better be done right…,ray Charles……Ali had phenomenal films made of them….even the dreamgirls……it seems like aaliyah, Whitney and MJ still needs their story told…this documentary of the stunningly beautiful grace Jones should be done right or not at all
