Alex Stobbs became an overnight phenomenon and shot to international prominence following transmission of 2008s critically acclaimed, award-winning documentary, A Boy Called Alex. It told of his extraordinary story as a Eton music scholar and cystic fibrosis sufferer. Immediately after transmission, offers of professional work flooded in, as did marriage proposals. Now aged 19, a choral scholar at King's College, Cambridge, and a member of its world-famous choir, this new film follows Alex's dramatic and event-filled transition from boy to man.

Determined to live as normal a student life as possible, complete with girlfriends, late nights and major socialising, Alex is also set on fulfilling his lifelong ambition: to conduct Bach's three hour masterpiece, the St Matthew Passion, with a major orchestra and some of the country's top soloists. But by pushing himself to the limit, Alex risks getting an infection that could be his last.

  • I can't wait to see this! It's going to be on next week where I live. Alex is just brilliant and such an inspiration. I am awestruck when I hear him play the piano or organ and then to see him conducting blows my mind. AMAZING young man. He is truly a blessing.
