Andrea Bocelli’s documentary “Andrea Bocelli: Because I Believe” is set to make its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival.

The documentary directed by Cosima Spender will be part of the Gala section of the festival.

The production was filmed in Italy and the U.S. and is set to go behind the scenes of Bocelli’s personal life and work, including never-before-seen insights into his story and off-the-stage scenes with his family and friends.

The film is being executive produced by Bocelli and his wife Veronica Bocelli, while Scott Rodger, Francesco Pasquero, and eOne’s Tara Long, Malcolm Gerrie, Matt Pritchard, and Geno McDermott are executive producing. Jan Younghusband serves as producer.

Bocelli recently celebrated his 30th anniversary with three concerts that took place on July 15, 17 & 19 in Lajatico at the Teatro del Silenzio in Tuscany. The celebration included such artists Ed Sheeran, Brian May, Shania Twain, Jon Batiste, Russell Crowe, Sofia Vergara, David Foster, Christian Nodal, Sofia Carson, Laura Pausini, Tiziano Ferro, Zucchero, Giorgia, Matteo Bocelli and classical stars Plácido Domingo, José Carreras, Lang Lang, Aida Garifullina, and Nadine Sierra.

The Toronto International Film Festival will open on Sept. 5, 2024 and will run through Sept. 15, 2024.
