Rufus Wainwright, Prima Donna

Alan Yentob explores the rapid rise of one of modern music's most mercurial talents, Rufus Wainwright.

Wainwright talks candidly about his background, his family of musical luminaries (father Loudon Wainwright III, mother Kate McGarrigle and sister Martha Wainwright), his troubled personal history with drugs and the tensions that have informed his music.

The film also follows his journey into the classical world as he creates his very first opera, Prima Donna.
