Aroview: A monumental and technically remarkable docu-series from director Peter Jackson that exhaustively covers the making of the Beatles' 1970 album, Let It Be.

Constructed and re-mastered from hundreds of hours of unused footage and audio originally captured for the 1970 documentary by Michael Lindsay-Hogg, it is revelatory in covering the group's creative process while also challenging long-held beliefs that the making of their final album was marked entirely by personal tensions. Told in three episodes that culminating in the famous rooftop concert. Bravo, Peter!
