Multiple Grammy®-winner, entrepreneur and actress Beyoncé will be the focus of an intimate feature-length HBO documentary film debuting February 16, 2013 in the US.

Entitled Beyonce: Life is But a Dream, the film will show a more personal side to the very private star and her family.

In the revealing trailer images of her 1-year-old daughter Blue Ivy’s sonogram are shown as a makeup-less Beyoncé is shown lying on a couch as she says, “I just had a feeling that something was going on.”

The singer also shared her battle to stay current and how she goes about keeping up with her commercial success. “I always battle with how much do I reveal about myself. How do I stay current? How do I stay soulful? I felt like I had been so commercially successful but it wasn’t enough. It’s something really stressful about having to keep up with that. You can’t express yourself. You can’t grow. It is the battle of my life. So I set a goal and my goal was independence. Everyone was like what is she going to do now? “People see celebrities, and they have money and fame, but I’m a human being. I cry. I get scared. I get nervous just like everyone else. Power is not given to you, you have to take it. You’re playing a part in a much bigger show and that’s what life is.
