Netflix have released a recent documentary on the rise and fall of John DeLorean
Plus a look back at previous DeLorean content here on Automotive American
The documentary is a mixture of footage from a previous documentary and interviews with those involved at the time including family members.

For John’s back story you can go to Wikipedia
Information on the documentary can be found here at Netflix
