nobleman trapped in the quagmire

Saying she was born in the wrong age, in fact her self seems to be the mark of that age. She can be the first black classical pianist, and life has not come true; she can be a best-selling jazz player and become an angry youth in the middle; she can be a civil rights fighter, but go the wrong way and lose herself; She has always been looking for her own destination, and has always been self-identified. Even if she went to Africa, it was only a temporary indulgence, and in fact she still did not find it. African aristocrats are in a quagmire. If this quagmire is gone, must she still be a nobleman? In fact, no one knows. Sometimes geniuses need to be inspired. Unfortunately, too many geniuses are tired of talent after all.

It's really weak compared to Amy - is the director trying to tell a story about a genius who is tired of fame, a story about a civil rights fighter, a story about escaping the world in search of utopia, or a story about a jazz musician who is Bach in his bones, I didn't figure it out myself. Nor is it a good documentary to tell the whole story in its entirety, although paranoia is more abhorrent (winter on fire).

Nina Simone: We will shape and mold this country or it will not be molded and shaped at all anymore. So I think we don't have a choice. How can you be an artist and not reflect the times?
