Miami-native Cécile McLorin Salvant never dreamed she would be one of the most decorated jazz singers of today. From the spontaneous decision to study vocal jazz while abroad in France to competing in the world renowned Thelonious Monk competition, Cécile’s career has had an unconventional path. Exploring the musical influences and support system that drive her as an artist, Singular shows the multidimensionality and pure talent Cécile brings to her music. Through interviews with peers, family members, and Cécile herself, Singular documents how she went from an unknown to a Grammy-winning jazz singer. Songs from a raw, ebullient performance in her hometown interspersed throughout the film color the unique journey of a jazz legend in the making. -EM
