Genius Amplified
Told through his own words and songs, ERIC CLAPTON: LIFE IN 12 BARS is an unflinching documentary about one of the most iconic figures in music – widely renowned as one of the greatest performers of all time. Directed by Academy Award winner Lili Fini Zanuck and edited by Chris King (Amy, Senna, Exit Through The Gift Shop), this documentary gives audiences a rare insight into a deeply personal story encompassing the dizzying highs and extreme lows of his private and public life, made even more intimate by Clapton’s voice-over narrative assembled from historic and newly recorded interviews along with similar contributions from his close collaborators, friends and family – including late music icons B.B. King, Jimi Hendrix and George Harrison.
