Multiple Grammy Winner/Entrepreneur/Actress Beyonce Knowles just announced that she will be debuting her intimate feature-length documentary film debuting on February 16, 2013, around the same time as her Super Bowl XLVII performance.

According to Bey, the film will be directed by her and is a fusion of video that provides raw, unprecedented access to her private entertainment life and high-voltage performances.

“Everybody knows Beyoncé’s music, but few know Beyoncé the person,” said Lombardo. “Along with electrifying footage of Beyoncé onstage, this unique special looks beyond the glamour to reveal a vibrant, vulnerable, unforgettable woman.” 

“HBO has a history of pushing every boundary with class and authenticity,” said Beyoncé. “Some of my favorite shows are on HBO, so I am excited that my film will be part of its bold programming. This film was so personal to me, it had to have the right home."

The film includes extensive first-person footage, some of which is shot by Beyoncé on her laptop, reflects the realities of being a celebrity, the refuge she finds onstage and the transcendent joy of becoming a mother.
