    • Synopsis
    • JACO is an award-winning documentary film about famed bass guitar player, Jaco Pastorius. He is generally regarded as one of the most influential and important bass players in music history, and is often described as “the Jimi Hendrix of bass.”

      JACO explores the musician’s full history, from growing up in 1950’s South Florida, to his meteoric rise to fame in legendary jazz-fusion group WEATHER REPORT, to his time with JONI MITCHELL, to his own ground-breaking career as bandleader, and ultimately to his tragic demise at the age of thirty-five.
