Description:

In 1950s Los Angeles, young Latino musician Ritchie Valens becomes an instant star with his heartfelt song "Donna." The song brings fame to Ritchie and stirs strong feelings for him and his girlfriend, also named Donna. But success creates problems. Ritchie's brother Bob struggles with jealousy, feeling overshadowed. Ritchie is also haunted by a recurring nightmare of a plane crash – a frightening premonition that comes true when he tours nationally with Buddy Holly. This story explores the world of rock 'n' roll, the desire for fame, and the challenges within family and ambition.
