Au début des années 70, Sixto Rodriguez enregistre deux albums sur un label de Motown. C'est un échec, à tel point qu’on raconte qu’il se serait suicidé sur scène. Plus personne n’entendit parler de Rodriguez. Sauf en Afrique du Sud où, sans qu’il le sache, son disque devint un symbole de la lutte contre l’Apartheid. Des années plus tard, deux fans du Cap partent à la recherche de “Sugar Man”. Ce qu’ils découvrent est une histoire faite de surprises, d’émotions et d’inspiration.

The extraordinary life of Quincy Jones -- one of the 20th century's most influential and talented composers, musicians and music producers -- provides the basis of this offbeat, free-form documentary tribute. With little regard for formal timelines and traditional documentary biography methods, the film is an amazing patchwork of personal insights featuring a constellation of music stars including his long-time friend Ray Charles, Miles Davis, Frank Sinatra, Herbie Hancock, Ella Fitzgerald, Michael Jackson, Aretha Franklin, Dizzy Gillespie and rappers Big Daddy Kane and Flavor Flav, as well as politicians, filmmakers and other important people. Some of the most moving scenes involve Jones returning to his childhood home in Chicago and recounting honest and painful memories from his childhood. Jones does not shy from discussing everything -- from his mother's mental illness, to his marital problems, to his serious health conditions. He also looks frankly at his career.
