Hey Jeremy6d, if you like music documentaries, I would highly recommend one called Searching For Sugar Man. It's about a little-known early-70s American folk singer who was totally overlooked here, but through a quirk of fate became hugely popular in South Africa during their civil rights struggle and was\is regarded by them in the same way people in the US and Britain talk about Bob Dylan. In the meantime, the artist -simply named Rodriguez- faded into complete obscurity.
It's a bit slow at first, but it tells a darn good story and it's a rare docu where spoilers are actually an issue. And there's fantastic music throughout if you like folk of that era. Plus, there's something kind of amazing about the idea of a someone becoming a cultural icon and affecting millions of lives without ever really knowing about it.
