This documentary chronicles the formation and meteoric rise of the iconic 1960s British rock band Led Zeppelin. The film was created in close collaboration with the band members: Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, and John Paul Johnson. They gave new interviews in which they shared memories of how their musical career began. The film also features archival interviews with the late drummer John Bonham and previously unreleased, restored footage of their early concerts and behind-the-scenes footage. This is the first time the musicians have agreed to appear in a film about their band.
