According to Tribeca's festival guide, the film is "a raw and exclusive look behind the scenes at the history and legacy of Bad Boy through a complex portrait of the label's mastermind, Sean 'Diddy' Combs aka Puff Daddy, as he tries to reunite his Bad Boy Family in the course of a three-week rehearsal period."
Whitney Houston and Iranian MC Shahin Najafi are the subjects of two other music-relateddocumentaries that will also be featured at Tribeca. The Nick Broomfield-helmed Whitney: Can I Be Me explores Houston's rise and fall and includes never-before-seen footage, and the Till Schauder-directed When God Sleeps chronicles Najafi's career and explores freedom of speech. The rapper was forced into hiding after criticism for his lyrics from religious clerics.
