IT'S NEVER OVER, JEFF BUCKLEY
Rising musician Jeff Buckley had only released one album when he died suddenly in 1997 at the age of just 30. Now, never-before-seen footage, exclusive voice messages and accounts from those closest to him offer a portrait of the captivating singer. Academy Award®-nominated filmmaker Amy Berg (DELIVER US FROM EVIL) paints an elegant and compassionate portrait of the late Buckley, whose once-in-a-generation voice and boundary-pushing artistry are spotlit for both existing fans and newcomers to his catalog. Beautiful scores and resonant, rare live performances underscore Buckley’s fullness of character — a history of the love and loss that shaped him and thus the international music culture of the late 20th century. Discordant as Buckley’s end was, Berg makes space for the consonances in between through special archival material and Buckley’s own diaristic narration. This film is a hum that echoes, and, like Buckley's “Hallelujah,” it takes on a light and life of its own.
