With unfettered access to the Zappa family trust and all archival footage, filmmaker Alex Winter explores the private life behind the mammoth musical career that never shied away from the political turbulence of its time.
Zappa was a singer-songwriter, played a handful of instruments, composed music, and performed as a bandleader. Zappa attempts to capture the definitive story behind the multi-faceted artist, featuring footage from performances and other archived material. The doc is led by interviews with Frank’s widow Gail Zappa and a handful of his musical collaborators, including Mike Keneally, Ian Underwood, Steve Vai, Pamela Des Barres, and others.
