George Michael Freedom Uncut concentrates on the formative period in the late Grammy Award winner’s life and career, leading to and following the making of his acclaimed, best-selling album “Listen Without Prejudice Vol. 1” and his subsequent, infamous High Court battle with his record label that followed, while also becoming poignantly personal about the death of his first love, Anselmo Feleppa. Filmed before his untimely passing, the doc is narrated by the singer, who was heavily involved in the making of the film that serves as his final work. The film features George’s incredible, unseen archival and private home footage, giving viewers a first-person account of this dramatic period in his life revealing how he became one of the most influential recording artists of all time who alone fought a corner for all artists by challenging the standard recording contract helping to rewrite the rules of the music industry. He talks about why he stepped out of the limelight and turned his back on celebrity. George Michael Freedom Uncut is co-directed by David Austin (George Michael Freedom: The Director’s Cut) & George Michael.
