A film about the Cuban dancer Carlos Acosta, which depicts the journey through his life as a dance legend and the first black dancer to perform some of the most famous ballet roles originally written for whites, in companies such as the Houston Ballet and the Royal Ballet in London (where he was the principal dancer for over 15 years). It tells the story of his difficult childhood up to adulthood, starring the dancer himself, who, despite success and international recognition, never forgot his origins.
