STAR!

Celebrating the life and work of iconic musical performer Luther Vandross, from childhood talent to worldwide fame.

New York native Luther Vandross was born to be a star, and his undeniable talent was positive proof of that. Starting off in the house band at the Apollo Theater, Luther would go on to support David Bowie, Roberta Flack, Bette Midler and many more before breaking through as the dynamic solo vocalist who would dominate R&B charts for decades.

Acclaimed director Dawn Porter handles Luther’s story with care, providing insight to the illustrious singer’s career and personal life. His consummate professionalism, his hard work and his diligence are all captured, but so are his frustrations and his loneliness. With stunning archival footage that provides intimate access to Luther and interviews with those who knew him best, a full picture of him is constructed in this jubilant celebration of the one and only Luther.
