Darnell Dawkins: Mouth Guitar Legend (2012)
This mockumentary traces the remarkable story of mouth-guitar legend Darnell Dawkins, a childhood friend of Jimi Hendrix who filled in for the legendary guitarist at Woodstock after Hendrix missed his flight. Though Dawkins' disapproving father fought hard to suppress any footage of his son's performances, this film reveals the true genius of the musician whose greatest instrument was his own body.

Just what I expected
While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
Blistering performances.
A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
