Amy Winehouse in her own words in 1st trailer for documentary “Amy” (video) April 2, 2015 - 17:41 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - The first trailer for the forthcoming film about the singer’s life takes viewers behind the scenes with a young Amy Winehouse, Digital Spy reports. Amy uses previously-unseen archive footage and unheard tracks to tell Winehouse's story in her own words. Amy reunites filmmaker Asif Kapadia with his colleagues from Senna, the award-winning 2010 documentary about three-time Formula 1 drivers' champion Ayrton Senna. Universal Music UK chief David Joseph has promised that Amy will offer "a very complicated and tender" look at the award-winning musician's life, intending to capture "the very heart of what she was about". Winehouse rose to fame with her 2003 debut album Frank, which earned her a Mercury Prize nomination. Her 2006 follow-up Back to Black featured the hit single 'Rehab' and won Winehouse five Grammys in 2008. She also battled drug and alcohol problems throughout her career and her turbulent personal life, including her troubled marriage to and subsequent divorce from Blake Fielder-Civil, made her a frequent tabloid target. Winehouse passed away from alcohol poisoning in July 2011 at the age of 27. Following her death, the Amy Winehouse Foundation was established in her name by her family, working to support vulnerable and disadvantaged young people, including those with drug and alcohol dependency. Amy opens in the UK on Friday, July 3. Top stories The creative crew of the Public TV had chosen 13-year-old Malena as a participant of this year's contest.
