Animated music documentary about "the World's First Superstar", the Swedish opera singer Jenny Lind. Opera star Thomas Hampson guides us through her life, telling about her success, the hysterical audience and her contacts with the greats of the time, such as Chopin, Mendelssohn and H. C. Andersen. Soprano Malin Byström sings Jenny Lind's most popular arias and the young talent Annie Ternström plays Jenny Lind herself. Conductor Evan Rogister leads the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra with classical repertoire and Swedish folk songs.—SVT
