A 1990s pop music drama tracing the meteoric rise and humiliating public downfall of two dancers caught in a manufactured scandal, balancing the glamour of success with the melancholy of deception exposed.

The rise and fall of Milli Vanilli, a studio group assembled by German producer Frank Farian and fronted by nightclub dancers Robert Pilatus and Fabrice Morvan. After a string of worldwide hit singles, awards and performances, it was revealed that the duo never sang a note of their songs, leading to one of the biggest scandals in music history.
