Academy Award-nominated director Amy Berg and Academy Award-winning producer Alex Gibney strip away Joplin's rock n' roll persona in Janis: Little Girl Blue, to reveal the gentle, trusting, sensitive but powerful woman behind the legend, in this quintessential story of a short, turbulent, and epic existence that changed music forever.
