Oscar-winning “Searching for Sugar Man” director Malik Bendjelloul has been found dead.



He was 36.



Police spokeswoman Pia Glenvik told the Associated Press that Bendjelloul died in Stockholm late Tuesday, but wouldn’t specify the cause of death.



“Searching for Sugar Man,” about the life and career of American singer Sixto Rodriguez, won the Oscar for best documentary in 2013.



Born in Sweden, Bendjelloul appeared on TV as a child and then studied journalism and media production. He produced music documentaries for Swedish television and worked as a TV reporter before leaving to travel.
