Freedom : La Story de George Michael

Overview

In 1982, the British singer had a dazzling success with the group Wham! alongside his friend Andrew Ridgeley. From "Club Tropicana" to "Careless Whisper", including "Wake Me up Before You Go-Go", the musicians had one hit after another until their separation in 1986. George Michael then began a solo career, with songs that have become cult favorites such as "I Want Your Sex", "Freedom" and "Fastlove". He collaborated with the greatest such as Freddy Mercury, Elton John, Aretha Franklin and Whitney Houston. The documentary looks back at the life and career of the artist, who passed away on December 25, 2016 at the age of 53.
