Ron Howard made a documentary about Jay Z's 2012 Budweiser Made In America festival. No, we are not kidding. The acclaimed director and probable candidate for whitest man alive (I mean, he played Richie f**king Cunningham) says his documentary about the Philly Fest will premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival.

Howard described the film to The Hollywood Reporter prior to the 2012 festival calling it "a reflection of the fabric of what it means to be Made in America -- what the festival represents, why Jay is doing it and how he relates to each artist."  

That year's festival included performances from Run-DMC, Skrillex, Pearl Jam, Drake and Rick Ross. TIFF begins on September 8, a week after the second annual Made In America fest ends.

The Jigga pic won't be the only concert doc offered to film-loving Canadians and Hollywood types. Metallica's 3D film Through The Never will also premeire at the prestigious event.
