Letting the fans into her private world, the singer has decided to allow a collection of rare images to be included in the exclusive video.

"Everybody knows Beyoncé's music, but few know Beyoncé the person," said Michael Lombardo, HBO president of programming, in a statement about the film. "Along with electrifying footage of Beyoncé onstage, this unique special looks beyond the glamour to reveal a vibrant, vulnerable, unforgettable woman."

Beyoncé picked all the footage used in the documentary herself. It will follow her life, from her time as a Destiny's Child at the end of the 90s to her busy career at Parkwood Entertaiment and her new life as a mother.
