Overview
- Director Isabel Castro spent two years cataloging thousands of hours from the family’s Q Productions archive to build the documentary.
- The project features new interviews with close relatives and bandmates, including Selena’s mother Marcella speaking publicly for the first time in decades.
- Chris Perez offers personal recollections of their relationship and life on the road, adding perspective to the band’s evolution.
- Suzette Quintanilla’s candid camcorder footage anchors the film’s intimate portrait of the singer beyond her public image.
- The documentary earned Sundance’s Special Jury Award for Archival Storytelling and audience awards at SXSW and the Miami Film Festival, and it deliberately avoids centering the murder case.
