Millions know their voices…but no one knows their names. Triumphant and heartbreaking in equal measure, 20 Feet is a tribute to the unsung voices who brought shape and style to popular music, and a reflection on their careers spent harmonizing with others. Along with rare archival footage and a peerless soundtrack, this “chronicle of exploitation and appropriation” (NY Times) boasts intimate interviews with Bruce Springsteen, Mick Jagger and Sting to name just a few. D: Morgan Neville, US, 2013, 91m
