Description:
In the vibrant cityscape of 1950s Los Angeles, Ritchie Valens, a young Latino musician with dreams in his eyes and a guitar in his hands, transforms into an overnight sensation with his soulful love ballad "Donna." As the song catapults him to fame, it also sparks a whirlwind of emotions for both Ritchie and his girlfriend Donna. His newfound success, however, comes with its own set of challenges; the ever-looming shadow of his jealous brother Bob, who feels overshadowed by Ritchie's rise in popularity. Additionally, Ritchie is plagued by a recurring nightmare of a devastating plane crash - an eerie premonition that becomes all too real when he embarks on his first national tour alongside fellow music icon Buddy Holly. This poignant tale delves deep into the world of rock 'n' roll, the human struggle for recognition and success, and the complexities of brotherly love and ambition.
