RUN IT BACK

As expansive and historic as R&B is, documentation of its artists pales in comparison to that of other genres.

classics. A fresh take on music docs, Run It Back uses direct-to-lens, verite-follows

and “reacts” with stars, and combines it with archive, music, and scenic fan interviews, Run It Back does the serious business of defining a canon in an energetic, honest, and celebratory style.
