Summer '82: When Zappa Came to Sicily (2013)

 

The historic but disastrous concert held by Frank Zappa at the La Favorita stadium in Palermo on July 14, 1982 and the journey of the Zappa family to discover the artist's Sicilian origins.

Although this documentary is made within the Italian director's quite personal view of a specific (but not insignificant) moment in Zappa's life, it is extremely well-made, very thorough and manages to present revelatory insight and some very moving scenes.
