synopsis

The official fully-authorized feature documentary on the life and music of Chuck Berry, the absolute instigator of Rock and Roll, directed by Jon Brewer. Chuck Berry was a prolific craftsman of word and chords; an undisputed and stunning combination of talent and charisma. Award-winning Film maker Jon Brewer (BB King The Life of Riley, Nat King Cole: Afraid of the Dark), lends new insight to the man known as the Father of Rock n Roll in interviews, exclusive footage of Chuck Berry, and more. Aside from the gift of Chuck Berry's music and vision to Americana and indeed Rock N Roll (then an undiscovered genre) he had an immensely mis-understood story. This documentary film gives viewers the opportunity to appreciate the vast catalogue of music alongside inside accounts from his family and contemporaries.
