The true
story of the incredible Princess Shaw and the
enigmatic composer Kutiman, who discovers her
from the other side of the world. By day,
Samantha Montgomery cares for the elderly in one
of New Orleans's toughest neighborhoods. By
night, she writes and sings her own songs as
Princess Shaw on her
confessional YouTube channel. Raw and
vulnerable, her voice is a diamond in the rough.
Across the globe, Ophir Kutiel creates video
mash ups of amateur YouTube performers. Known as
Kutiman, he is a composer, a musician, and a
pioneering video artist embraced by the world of
fine art. Two strangers, almost 7,000 miles
apart, begin to build a song. The film unfolds
as Kutiman pairs Princess Shaw's emotional
performances in a beautiful expression of
generosity and compassion, revealing the
bonafide star underneath and her fight to never
give up on her dreams.
