Tina

In the fall of 1981, Tina Turner sat for an interview with the music editor of People Magazine. Five years earlier, she had divorced Ike Turner, her husband and musical partner for 16 years, and almost no one knew why. The story she would tell was a harrowing account of the abuse and torture she had lived through and the literal escape she made one night after years of trauma. The article would be the first of many profiles that would cement Tina’s image as a heroine. Her personal narrative, along with her undeniable talent, would go on to fuel one of the most improbable comebacks in music history. As her fame grew, so did her identity as a cultural symbol. Tina projected strength and resilience to her millions of fans around the world and yet, concealed behind this public face, was a woman still struggling to be released from the past.

"From her early career as the queen of R&B to her record-breaking sell-out arena tours of the 1980s, Tina Turner draws back the curtain to invite us into her private world in a way she has never done before. Revealing her innermost struggles, and sharing some of her most personal moments, Tina is the defining and inspirational record of one of the greatest survivors in modern music."
