Liza: A Truly Terrific Absolutely True Story is a star-studded tribute that focuses on a dazzling, complex period of Liza Minnelli’s life. Beginning in the 1970s, just after the tragic death of her mother, Judy Garland, the film follows Minnelli as she confronts a range of personal and professional challenges on the way to becoming a bona fide legend.

Audiences learn about her relationships with a series of extraordinary mentors: Charles Aznavour, Fred Ebb, Bob Fosse, Halston, and Kay Thompson. In addition to interviews with Minnelli herself, the film benefits from the insights of a coterie of colleagues including Mia Farrow, Michael Feinstein, Joel Grey, Ben Vereen, and the late Chita Rivera.

The film illuminates Minnelli’s many contradictions - her privilege and struggle, strength and vulnerability, sky-high expectations and towering talent - all of which fueled her stunning rise, resilience, and enduring place in the history of entertainment.
