DALTON’S DREAM

DALTON’S DREAM

NORTH AMERICAN PREMIERE Singer Dalton Harris, winner of The X-Factor in 2018, shares an emotional journey of self-acceptance against the backdrop of a fickle music industry. The film follows Harris over three years as he moves from Jamaica to London to capitalize on his newfound fame, while hiding his sexual identity and battling anxiety and depression. Dalton’s story is a poignant reflection on the violence of homophobia and the possibility of personal growth. – Karen McMullen
