I just discovered the documentary and it moved me immensely. What a wild and eerie strory. And then to find out Swedish film-maker Malik Bendjelloul - who had won an Oscar for his debut, the stunning Searching for Sugar Man - shocked everyone by taking his own life.....creates even more of an enigma surrounding this legacy.

and the guy who made, wrote and directed the documentary committed suicide! So basically he gave a life to r Rodriguez and took his own!

We were at the concert in Cape Town. Until he came out to perform, nobody knew if it was really him. There will never be anotner concert like that EVER!!

Mr. Rodriguez, have away most of his money to his daughters and family, friends and charities. He only kept enough to live modestly after his success

He did have similar success in Australia / New Zealand tho. He was a massive star in the Southern Hemisphere. This would NEVER happen now because of the internet. But also, how is Joe Rogan a huge star? Completely beyond me. He's just coming up with stuff high off his ass, can't remember Rodriguez's name, doesn't know that his music was popular with anti-apartheid folks... pathetic. He's like drunk history without the alcohol.
