Plot

Celebrating the life of Tupac Shakur, Tupac: Resurrection explores Shakur’s life viscerally and dramatically through his own words and music, as well as through vivid images of the world as he experienced it. The film carefully mines video archives to expose the brilliant storyteller that Shakur was during interviews and in personal conversations throughout his life. In his own words, Shakur powerfully takes viewers with him throughout the happiness and the sadness of his childhood, through the ups and downs of his professional career, through his romances and his life-altering mistakes, and finally, through the lessons he has learned. Not merely a commemoration of his life and artistry, Tupac: Resurrection explores honestly and openly Shakur’s many complexities. It examines the artist’s gifts, passions and conflicts, and unravels the mystique of his life by looking at those who influenced him early on.westside outlaws riderz
