Anyone seen this documentary? If you have the chance I recommend it.
A true story that no fiction writer could make up. The subject is an unknown musician from Detroit named Rodriguez. A fascinating character with an incredible life story.
Snippet from Wikipedia;
Searching for Sugar Man is a documentary film directed by Malik Bendjelloul, which details the efforts of two Cape Town fans in the late 1990s, Stephen 'Sugar' Segerman and Craig Bartholomew Strydom, to find out whether the rumoured death of American musician Sixto Rodriguez was true, and, if not, to discover what had become of him. Rodriguez's music, which never took off in the United States, had become wildly popular in South Africa, but little was known about him there
