Amy-poster_3236321bTHE forthcoming documentary documenting the life and times of the late Amy Winehouse is to be screened at this year’s Cannes Film Festival.

Directed by the acclaimed Asif Kapadia of ‘Senna’ fame, the tentatively titled ‘Amy’ will receive a special midnight showing at the world renowned event.

Set to be comprised of content from throughout her career as well as never before seen interviews and in-studio footage; the Cannes showing will also incorporate a special musical accompaniment staged by Universal.

Whilst the musical accompaniment hasn’t been expanded upon in any great detail, there is considerable speculation that Amy’s niece Dionne Bromfield will be performing.

‘Amy’ will be shown in UK cinemas from 3rd July 2015.
