Mega-talented Harlem native Priscilla Star is a born performer. She started rapping under the name “P-Star” before she hit double digits, and now she’s one of the stars of the reimagined and hip-hop-infused PBS series The Electric Company. This touching documentary charts her inspirational rise to fame.

At age 9, Priscilla, tells her single-father, Jesse, “I am going to become a rapper and fulfill your dreams of succeeding in the music business.” Moved by Priscilla’s passion Jesse begins to teach her all he knows. In the four years that follow, this father-daughter duo go from a one-bedroom shelter in Harlem to a 4 bedroom apartment, from food stamps to shopping sprees, from rapping on street corners to sold out night clubs, and from sneaking under train turnstiles to being driven around in tinted SUV’s.. But in the efforts to make her dad proud, Priscilla struggles to remain a child and finds herself trapped in a world of people twice her size and four times her age and doesn't know who to trust. Jesse himself is caught between wanting to protect his daughter’ innocence and exploiting her raw talent to fulfill his deferred dream.
