Mr. Mojo Risin': The Story of L.A. Woman scene

Jim Morrison is Mr. Mojo Risin' in The Story of L.A. Woman.

The music-filled documentary film Mr. Mojo Risin’: The Story of L.A. Woman chronicles the creation and legacy of rock group The Doors’ landmark 1971 album L.A. Woman, featuring the inimitable vocal stylings of late singer Jim Morrison.

Produced with the full involvement, approval and cooperation of The Doors, the film also features live and studio performances and rare archival photos.
