About
Pharrell Williams tells his life story through Lego animation, speaking with filmmaker Morgan Neville and revisiting his youth in Virginia Beach.
Pharrell Williams talks with documentary filmmaker Morgan Neville and explains that he wants to tell his story in Lego form, because he sees the world as a Lego set built from existing material. The film then goes back to Virginia Beach, where Pharrell lived with his parents, Pharaoh and Carolyn, in the Atlantis housing projects. He has synesthesia and sees colours in music. Artists such as Stevie Wonder drew him to music. He has difficulty at school and has to repeat the seventh grade. He becomes friends with Chad Hugo, and together they make music with artists including Missy Elliott, Pusha T and Timbaland. Pharrell and Chad go on to form The Neptunes.
Pharrell Williams voices himself in the Lego animation, alongside voices including Gwen Stefani, Kendrick Lamar, Timbaland, Justin Timberlake, Busta Rhymes, Jay-Z and Chad Hugo.
