Synopsis

Released in 1972, The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars invaded the minds of the nation's youth with a killer combination of extraterrestrial rock 'n' roll, outrageous sexuality and theatrical stage presentation and David Bowie became the biggest craze since the Beatles. But it had been a momentous struggle for David Bowie to hit on just the right formula that would take him to the top. Narrated by fan Jarvis Cocker, the documentary reveals Bowie's mission to the stars through the musicians and colleagues who helped him in his unwavering quest for fame - a musical voyage that led Bowie to doubt his true identity, eventually forcing the sudden demise of his alien alter ego, Ziggy.
