"+ Starts off mysteriously and ends at a wonderful uplifting and insightful high. The story of Sixto Rodriguez and how he was ignored in his home country of the United States, but becomes a major South African success (unbeknownst to him) is one of the best underdog stories ever put to film. This is part music documentary, part detective story and has heart from beginning to end. One of my favorite documentaries. It's short but contains so much story in it's runtime. See this wonderful movie!
