We all know Idris Elba as the suave and debonair film and television star (who will hopefully be the next James Bond).

However just as he was preparing for the role, Elba’s father died. This personal documentary takes a look at the making of Elba’s first album as he grapples with the loss of his father while the world mourned the death of the icon, Nelson Mandela.
