A new documentary exploring the truth behind Britney Spears' conservatorship is on the way from BBC Two.

Following the massive success of U.S. documentary Framing Britney Spears, which documents the Toxic singer's treatment at the hands of reporters and the paparazzi, 2008 public breakdown and a hospital spell, BAFTA-winning journalist Mobeen Azhar's own investigation into Britney's situation will air on the TV channel later this spring.

In the documentary, which has a working title of Britney, Azhar will be seen journeying from the singer's hometown of Kentwood, Louisiana, to Los Angeles, as well as attending a court hearing and speaking to those fighting for Britney's freedom.

"I went to LA in search of the truth of how Britney Spears, one of the biggest pop stars on the planet, ended up in a conservatorship," he said in a statement. "I found myself in a world of lawyers, superfans and paparazzi and spent time with many of the people who've had a front row seat in Britney's life.

"This film taps into the energy of the #FreeBritney movement and questions the industry, fandom and the laws that facilitate conservatorships."
