Synopsis
In 2018, a young musician from rural Jamaica called Dalton Harris became the first black man and non British man to win “The X Factor” UK and, with it, a lucrative record deal that promised to transform his life. Filmed over four years, this coming-of-age documentary follows Dalton as he struggles for fame, love, and acceptance whilst battling dangerous allegations about his sexuality and spiraling mental health.
