The life and career of tenor Andrea Bocelli is revisited in Andrea Bocelli: Because I Believe. Andrea Bocelli was born in the Tuscan village of La Sterza and has been completely blind since the age of 12. However, this hasn't stopped him from enjoying a three-decade music career that encompasses pop, rock, and opera. Framed by a concert at the Baths in Caracalla in Rome, the location of the 1990 Three Tenors performance, the story of Andrea Bocelli's professional and personal life is told. Andrea Bocelli: Because I Believe Synopsis Andrea Bocelli: Because I Believe is a documentary about the so-called "pop tenor" directed by Cosima Spender. In addition to documenting his career as the most successor tenor working today, which includes his crossover hit duet "Con te partirò (Time to Say Goodbye) with Sarah Brightman, the documentary how gives a peek into Bocelli's personal life. This includes the relationship with his wife and manager Veronica Berti and their daughter Virginia and Andrea's love of horse riding, which he still partakes in, despite his blindness. My Thoughts on Andrea Bocelli: Because I Believe Andrea Bocelli: Because I Believe ends up being a satisfactory documentary of the tenor, even if it only scratches the surface of Andrea Bocelli's career. Some aspects of Bocelli's career discussed in the film that I was not previously aware of are how he got his big break as a touring piano player and vocalist for the Italian rock star Zucchero and that Luciano Pavarotti gave Bocelli his blessing when the latter began performing in operas. Also, despite crossing over into multiple genres, Andrea Bocelli does not like using the term "pop tenor," which probably the biggest takeaway from Andrea Bocelli: Because I Believe is how he is able to take classical opera and bring it to the general public.
