The Sweatbox is a 2002 documentary designed to show behind the scenes footage of Kingdom of the Sun (the original working title of The Emperor's New Groove). It illustrated the slow and painful transformation from Kingdom of the Sun to The Emperor's New Groove, including the director, musician Sting (whose wife created the documentary), artists, and voice cast being dismayed by the new direction. A major theme is creative-executive conflicts.
