THE BOY FROM MEDELLIN is a music documentary which follows the Colombian reggaeton singing star J Balvin as he prepares for a concert in his home city.
- J Balvin talks openly about his mental health issues, including having suicidal thoughts early in his career, but also explains how he copes and how he wants to use his celebrity to speak out and destigmatise the subject of mental health. There is footage of riot police using tear gas and violent tactics to suppress street demonstrations protesting against the Colombian government, but there is no strong detail. References are made to the death of a young demonstrator. There are infrequent drug references.
