曾获得7座格莱美奖杯的艾米·怀恩豪斯，于2011年7月23日，因饮酒中毒而去世，享年27岁。此纪录片公开了一些艾米生前的私人影像，并且希望从艾米本人的角度来揭开这场悲剧的背后真相。制片人James Gay-Rees表示：“这样一部拥有当代性的影片，能够抓住时代精神，以其 他电影无法达到的方式来解读我们所处的世界。” 艾米·怀恩豪斯被认为是这个时代最杰出的爵士女歌手之一，除了慵懒沙哑的嗓音，她总是顶着高耸蓬乱的蜂巢头，化着极致夸张的烟熏妆，穿着凌乱暴露的衣衫，让所有人的视线都被她吸引。她的歌曲仿佛来自深不可测的心底，有一种蛊惑的魔力。然而可悲的是，艾米却成为了自己的成功、媒体、情感和生活方式的囚徒。这个社会中，人们一方面赞赏她的才华，在另一方面也毫不留情地在伤害和消费着她。
Birds of paradise are one of David Attenborough's lifelong passions. He was the first to film many of their beautiful and often bizarre displays, and over his lifetime he has tracked them all over the jungles of New Guinea. In this very personal film, he uncovers the remarkable story of how these 'birds from paradise' have captivated explorers, naturalists, artists, film-makers and even royalty. He explores the myths surrounding their discovery 500 years ago, the latest extraordinary behaviour captured on camera and reveals the scientific truth behind their beauty: the evolution of their spectacular appearance has in fact been driven by sex.
And in a final contemporary twist to this story of obsession and royalty, he travels to the desert of Qatar, to a state-of-the-art facility which houses the largest breeding group of these birds in the world - a sheikh's very own private collection. There he has his closest ever encounter with a greater bird of paradise and its dramatic display, reliving the experience that captivated him in the forests of New Guinea more than 50 years ago.
'For me birds of paradise are the most romantic and glamorous birds in the world. And this is a film I have wanted to make for 40 years.' - Sir David Attenborough.
