I work in the programming committee of a film festival in Buenos Aires and we screened it this year. Cool doc, however the disco references lasts some 5-10 minutes. Basically, his "dancefloor epiphany", its relation with his coming out of the closet, and the making of "Go Bang". They talk with the black lady who did the vocals and one guy who claimed to have been a disco producer, but I couldn't find his name in the records he mentioned. Can't remember his name, but he supposedly had worked with Russell in that track.
