\"I want people to hear my voice,\" Abela as Winehouse says. \"And just forget their troubles for five minutes.\"

A description for the film says it is \"told through Amy's eyes and inspired by her deeply personal lyrics. The film explores and embraces the many layers of the iconic artist and the tumultuous love story at the center of one of the most legendary albums of all time.\"

Winehouse released \"Back to Black,\" her second and last studio album, in 2006. It won five Grammy Awards.
