A new The Doors documentary, entitled "When You're Strange", will premiere on January 17 at the Sundance Film Festival. Written and directed by Tom DiCillo, the film utilizes a wealth of previously unseen footage to chart the band's beginnings at UCLA's film school through to frontman Jim Morrison's mysterious death in 1971.

The Doors keyboardist Ray Manzarek said the movie is "the anti-Oliver Stone", in reference to the 1991 film "The Doors". "This will be the true story of the Doors."

Rhino will release a soundtrack to "When You're Strange" next summer.
