One of the world's greatest singers, Andrea Bocelli has a voice that transcends genres and generations. In this intimate portrait of the acclaimed Italian tenor, Bocelli, for the first time, tells his story in his own words. Documentarian Cosima Spender follows Bocelli with unprecedented access beyond the footlights to reveal an uncompromising artist and devoted family man with a fearless passion for living. Despite losing his sight at age 12, Bocelli dedicated his life to music and, after years spent entertaining customers in piano bars, caught the attention of the legendary Luciano Pavarotti, who heard Bocelli's voice on a demo tape. Bocelli's life changed dramatically with the worldwide smash hit "Time to Say Goodbye," his astonishing duet with Sarah Brightman that catapulted him to superstardom. With hard-fought technical mastery of his voice and his decades-long love of opera -- "music's heaven" -- Bocelli would go on to perform on the world's most prestigious stages and with diverse singing partners such as Céline Dion, Jennifer Lopez, and Dua Lipa. Through interviews, archival performance footage, and informal gatherings with family and friends, Andrea Bocelli: Because I Believe celebrates the voice -- and man -- who continues to touch the hearts of millions of listeners around the world.
