Synopsis:

Take a richly-human story of survival and triumph, a now soundtrack by the hottest bands around and the startling presence and musicality of rock superstar Prince-the man who lived the music-and you've got what may be in Rolling Stone's words, "the smartest, most spiritually ambitious rock-'n'-roll movie ever made."
