New documentary at SXSW quite literally opens a storage vault of Joan Baez's life and 60-year career.

So much of Joan Baez's life has been in the spotlight since she was heralded as the crystalline voice of the 1960s folk scene that there would seem to be little new ground for a documentary to cover. Her rise to international stardom as a teenager, her civil rights and anti-war activism, and her high-profile personal relationships and struggles with anxiety have all been well documented through two autobiographies, numerous books, and previous films.

The documentary sets that deeply personal tone at the outset, as Baez prepares for her final 2018 tour. Offstage, the songwriter works to retrieve her voice before performances, and reflects on the struggle of touring as she approaches 80, and that intimacy remains until the end as she cares for her mother in hospice at her house.

"Artistically, we wanted it to be observational, intimate, immersive," O'Connor continued."Everything was shot with natural light. We wanted it to be a fly on the wall, behind the scenes, and we wanted it to, because of the friendship, to have that quality all throughout.
