Ahmir "Questlove" Thompson, director, quote: "I'm honored to tell the story of Earth, Wind & Fire and the deep meaning behind their message and music. To grow up listening to the music is one thing but to be handed the keys to the kingdom of preserving history is another. I can't imagine a better platform on which to share this documentary with U.S. audiences than HBO."
