2 min reading

Andrea Bocelli is one of the world's greatest singers, whose voice transcends generations and genres. In this intimate portrait, the Italian tenor tells his story in his own words for the first time. Documentary filmmaker Cosima Spender follows Bocelli far beyond the spotlight, where he had never before invited anyone. There, we meet an uncompromising artist and a devoted, passionate father. Bocelli, who lost his sight at the age of 12, devoted his entire life to music. Initially, he played piano in bars for years, but everything changed when opera legend Luciano Pavarotti heard a recording of Bocelli's voice. After an incredible duet with Sarah Brightman, everyone heard him – "Time to Say Goodbye" propelled the singer to global fame. Thanks to the effort he put into honing his voice and his long-standing love of opera (which the artist calls "musical heaven"), Bocelli has performed on the most prestigious stages in the world. He has performed duets with stars such as Céline Dion, Jennifer Lopez, and Dua Lipa. Andrea Bocelli: Because I Believe features interviews, archival performance footage, and recordings of gatherings with family and friends. The film is a true celebration of this talented artist, whose voice continues to touch millions of listeners worldwide.
