Director Nick Broomfield and Rudi Dolezal weave never before seen video, candid interviews, and behind the scenes performances into an intimate portrait of Whitney Houston, who died suddenly after years of addiction.

By the time Whitney Elizabeth Houston was 15, she was singing background vocals for Chaka Khan, Lou Rawls, and Jermaine Jackson. In 1983 Whitney signed a worldwide recording contract with Clive Davis's Arista Records. However her success came with its fair share of drug use, love affairs, and scandals.
