Nina Simone was, by all accounts, one of the greatest performers of all time. A courageous and powerful voice that touched millions and truly came alive on the stage. Although what most people don't know, is that she was the same when she left the stage. Being such a brave and important figure who lived in a time of distress and injustice, Simone was as alive offstage as she was on it, but she was angry. See, for the first time, the ultimate power that courage and anger can have on the world, but also make the people around her wonder, "what happened, Miss Simone?"
'What Happened, Miss Simone?' is a documentary about the life and times of recording artist and civil rights campaigner Nina Simone. The film is directed by Academy Award-nominated director, Liz Garbus ('Bobby Fischer Against the World', 'Love, Marilyn'), and features interviews with Simone's daughter, as well as some of her close friends and collaborators, in order to bring a new view of the woman to audiences. The film premiered at the Sundance Film Festival on 22nd January 2015, and is set for release on Netflix on 26th June 2015.
