One of Africa's most prominent musical figures, a fervent promoter of human rights, "the voice of Africa", Youssou N, at the height of his career, became frustrated by the negative perception of his Muslim faith and composed "Egypt", a deeply personal album dedicated to Islam. However, the album quickly became the centre of controversy especially in his homeland, Senegal, and was deemed blasphemous. Combining footage of religious rituals, concert performances and production of the album, this musical journey chronicles N's challenges over the album, its universal message and N'Dour's voice of hope and tolerance.
