The story

The film traces the final five years of David Bowie's career as he came back from a long hiatus to create two new albums, The Next Day in 2013 and Blackstar in 2016, and the off-Broadway musical, Lazarus. The film's story begins in 2004, when Bowie suffered symptoms of a heart attack onstage in Germany, which ended his final world tour. Whately used footage from his first documentary; David Bowie: Five Years, which explored five of Bowie's most iconic albums, from Ziggy Stardust to Let's Dance, and also used behind-the-scenes footage from Bowie's videos for the film.
