In 1970, Detroit musician Sixto Rodriguez -- more often simply known as Rodriguez -- released his first album "Cold Fact". It was expected to make him a star. Instead it did nothing, and Rodriguez and his music began to fade into obscurity -- at least, in the United States, where international stars are so often made.
But unknown to Rodriguez, his music had become huge in apartheid-era South Africa. And now, a new documentary looks at the story of two South African fans who decided to find out what had happened to their mysterious musical idol.
Malik Bendjelloul is the director of "Searching for Sugarman". We reached him in Traverse City, Michigan.
"Searching for Sugarman" opens in Canada, today.
