Plot: Hot on the trail of another controversial and provocative subject, award-winning documentary filmmaker Nick Broomfield (Kurt & Courtney; Heidi Fleiss: Hollywood Madam; Aileen Wournos: The Selling of a Serial Killer) chronicles the still unsolved murders of rap superstars Christopher Wallace (aka Biggie Smalls, the Notorious B.I.G.) and Tupac Shakur. A hit at this year's Sundance Film Festival, Biggie & Tupac is the story of two great friends who had a falling out and became deadly enemies. Their murders were long explained as being the result of the rivalry that had grown between them, allegedly a result of the ongoing East Coast/West Coast rivalry in hip hop. But now, at the fifth anniversary of their deaths, Broomfield reveals startling evidence to suggest the blame lies elsewhere. Broomfield's exploration ranges from Los Angeles to New York, documenting the workings of corrupt police officers, the insistent calls for justice from Wallace's loving mother, the eyewitnesses to the murders, never seen before evidence and both veiled and blatant threats from Suge Knight. Biggie & Tupac again demonstrates Broomfield's uncanny ability to get people to talk to him on camera, including a rare prison interview with Suge Knight, along with his trademark wry commentary.
