Matangi / Maya / M.I.A. (2018)
Being a long time fan (been following her since her first US tour) I was fascinated. Lots of little backstory tidbits, plus the brit take on her.
I listened to new stuff (not covered in this doc) half heartedly - she lost me when she became an avid anti-vaxxer. However her issue with it is government control, not science. She’s not a trumper at all - violently the opposite.
Seeing her father, the founding force in the terrorist Tamil Tigers, was a revelation. He looked so average. There’s some graphic real life atrocities footage.
I’m still chewing on a lot of this doc. It’s making me reconcile her outspoken vax stance. It’s a bitch when a celeb I enjoy puts me out due to politics (don’t get me started on Gina Carano) but it wouldn’t be authentic MIA if it was controversial.
