Back to Black

London in the early 2000s: The talented singer and musician Amy Winehouse (Marisa Abela) finds her stage in the clubs of Camden. With her songs, her extraordinary voice, and her unique charisma, she captivates the audience. Music fans and talent scouts quickly take notice, and her meteoric rise to pop stardom begins, but fame comes at a price.

Amy Winehouse is regarded as one of the greatest artists in recent pop history. Her critically acclaimed second album "Back to Black," released in 2006, brought her worldwide fame and five Grammys. She has sold over 30 million records, and her songs are still streamed more than 80 million times a month, over 10 years after her death. "Back to Black" is the first feature film about the tragically short life of this extraordinary musician to hit theaters.

British director Sam Taylor-Johnson tells the story of a musician with a unique talent and exceptional presence with respect and directness. Marisa Abela shines in the lead role, singing herself in the film. Alongside her, Jack O’Connell plays Amy's great but unhappy love, Blake Fielder-Civil, Eddie Marsan portrays her father Mitch, and Lesley Manville plays her grandmother Cynthia. The screenplay is written by Matt Greenhalgh.
