Jock Soto, the son of a Navajo mother and Puerto Rican, was just sixteen when he left his family to follow his dream of becoming a dancer. In his 25-year career, Soto was one of the dance world's most beloved stars and a defining personality of the New York City Ballet. This documentary explores his life in dance, the role of his Navajo background in his life and art, his identity as a gay man.
