'Love to Love You, Donna Summer' is exploring the highs and lows of Donna Summer's fame.
Musical legends can seem like untouchable, mythical icons from the outside looking in. But to their closest circle, the family and friends that know them more intimately, they're much more complex. Such is explored in , an HBO Original documentary offering an intimate glimpse at the artist's life on and off stage.
"There were so many fans that would come up to me and share their stories. And I did feel like she was kind of this mythical, mysterious person that people didn't really know who she fully was -- I think they kind of saw this persona and didn't really understand just how much of an artist she was," she adds.
"I think what saved her in that moment is the grace of God. I think [it was] God saying, 'This is not your time,' because she would have been out that window," Sudano shares."And I think when you look at her life, it was rooted in spirituality, not necessarily the church or whatever, but just real deep faith that God had called her. He had called her to great things.
Her mother's humanity and all the trials and tribulations that made her a multi-faceted person are what Sudano believes allowed her to connect with her audience."I think it's what made my mother really great at connecting with her audiences and why she was able to translate those songs and those moments onstage," she notes."So intrinsically [and] so deeply because she had lived through these experiences. And so it was really important for the film to reflect that.
