Renowned documentary filmmaker Alex Gibney presents this sweeping portrait of Paul Simon. From the cabin/studio where he’s crafting his dreamlike and spiritual final album, Seven Psalms while grappling with hearing issues, we journey through six decades of his career: his early days in a Queens bedroom, where he and Art Garfunkel dreamt of emulating The Everly Brothers, to his global success with “Sounds of Silence” and “Bridge Over Troubled Water.” Simon’s role as a master of vocal harmony and folk ballads that captured his generation’s psyche, his exploration of musical traditions from Jamaica, Brazil, and South Africa, and captivating glimpses of the Graceland tour are all on display. It’s an intimate and artistic exploration filled with authenticity, never-before-seen moments, loves, friendships, heartbreaks, comebacks, perfectionism, sensitivity, and unwavering devotion to his craft.

Starring: Paul Simon, Art Garfunkel, Edie Brickell, Wynton Marsalis
