YZY_WY_DOC_DAY01-03_V02 Trailers

The first part of a documentary film made and produced by Roc-a-Fella co-founder Damon Dash, featuring the recording sessions and various other creative activity that took place in July of 2020 on Kanye West's Cody, Wyoming ranch, while West was putting the "finishing touches" on his tenth studio album, DONDA — and doing so in midst of a manic episode. The sessions did not, ultimately, result in the planned July 24th release of DONDA, which Dash's documentary acknowledges in the form of several montages of media response to the missed date, as well to rumors surrounding West's divorce from Kim Kardashian West, and to the fallout of an emotional rally that took place in South Carolina, where West announced his candidacy for President of the United States. The documentary was posted online and discovered on January 23rd, 2021. It features clips of songs intended for DONDA, including "Alien," "24," "God Breathed on This," and others.

Reviews
Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
Gutsycurene Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.
Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
Phillipa Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
