Madonna's Blond Ambition tour, her third, is still regarded as a watershed in live performances. With an elaborate choreography and extravagantly sexy and provocative performances, the show became the most successful of the 1990s. A big part of this history has been recorded here, making this into a cult musical documentary - that gains at the Rio Film Festival a commemorative screening for its 25th anniversary - revealing not only the backstage of the tour, but also profiling Madonna and Warren Beatty’s, her then-boyfriend, personal lives.
