CGiii Comment

After winning UK’s The X Factor, young queer man Dalton Harris receives prejudiced backlash from his home country Jamaica. Award-winning director Kim Longinotto beautifully captures Dalton’s search for love and acceptance.

Velvet-voiced Dalton Harris thought his dreams had come true when he won one of the world’s top talent competitions. He was the first non-British and Black man to win, and it came with a million-pound recording deal. But the thrill of a new lifestyle and new boyfriend, and the launch of his first single soon sours. He becomes the target of homophobic death threats, predominantly from Jamaica – a nation with one of the highest rates of anti-LGBTQ violence in the world. Directors Kim Longinotto and Franky Murray Brown filmed Dalton over four years, as he faced very difficult choices, but also the opportunity to truly be himself.
