Searching for Sugar Man is a 2012 Swedish/British documentary directed by Malik Bendjelloul, detailing the efforts of two Cape Town fans, Stephen 'Sugar' Segerman and Craig Bartholomew Strydom, to find out if the rumored death of American musician Rodriguez was true, and, if not, to discover what had become of him. Rodriguez's music, which never took off in the United States, had become wildly popular in South Africa, but little was known about him there.

Not in the slightest. Am glad he was brought to my attention.

The film is a must see in my view, on many levels.

Keeps winning more and more awards and quite rightly so.

Absolutely Amazing

His expression on his face on few scenes told me all - He is very content and himself.
