Netflix’s first Oscar contender was a documentary. Here’s another.

What Happened, Miss Simone?

Director: Liz Garbus
Premise: From IMDb: “A documentary about the life and legend Nina Simone, an American singer, pianist, and civil rights activist labeled the “High Priestess of Soul.””
Oscar Chances: Uncertain: While there have been music documentaries nominated at the Oscars, Amy seems a far more likely contender than this. However, if there’s a second nominated, this seems like a likely threat.
