Using rare, never before seen photos and footage as well as unreleased recordings, Academy Award and Emmy-winning director Martin Scorsese traces the lines of George Harrison's journey from Liverpool to become one of the most talented and celebrated guitarists and songwriters in the world. This deeply personal film chronicles his life as a Beatle, his success as a solo artist and his lifelong quest to balance the material and the spiritual.

George Harrison: Living In The Material World reunites Martin Scorsese (Academy Award-winner The Departed, Shutter Island, Shine A Light, The Aviator, Gangs Of New York, Casino, Goodfellas, Cape Fear, Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, The Last Waltz), David Tedeschi (Pinero, The Blues, Shine a Light), Nigel Sinclair (The Last Play At Shea, Amazing Journey: The Story of The Who) and Margaret Bodde (The Blues) who previously collaborated on the acclaimed, Grammy award-winning No Direction Home: Bob Dylan.
