Investigating the legacy of an eleven-year-old Puerto Rican salsa singer who achieved momentary fame before vanishing without a trace, Sam Zubrycki's documentary explores the complicated relationship between the child star and the New York record producer who discovered him, along with the broader importance of the musical genre to contemporary Latin American culture. Speaking to the director, Jasmine Crittenden asks him about the documentary's winding path to completion, and the impact that it has had on the lives of its subjects.
