From piano teacher to pop star. Roberta Flack's huge career began as a piano accompanist for opera singers, until her singing teacher pointed out how sad it was that more people didn't get to hear her sing. A bunch of Billboard hits later, she is considered one of pop history's great singers, with the bittersweet Killing Me Softly at the top of her repertoire. Antonino D'Ambrosio's Roberta is the documentary that chronicles her career.
