The album went on to make the U.S. Top 10, earning a gold disc. Face Value also gave birth to several hit singles, including the atmospheric "In The Air Tonight," " I Missed Again," and "If Leaving Me Is Easy."
This documentary includes several previously unseen performances, as well as rare home movies, archival footage of the studio sessions where Phil Collins worked closely with engineer Hugh Padgham and the Earth Wind and Fire horn section, unique photographs and documents from Phil's own private archive, and insights into the music from an eclectic range of musicians on the album.

It also includes special performances given by Phil Collins of songs from the album and footage which was finally omitted. Phil also demonstrates how he created the unique drum sound that underpinned "In the Air Tonight," his first Number One record.
