YouTube's official description

Source: the uploader's own description on YouTube. The analysis above is YTBVC's own.

A young man with a talent for music, played by Prince, has begun a career with much promise. He meets an aspiring singer, Apollonia (Apollonia Kotero), and finds that talent alone isn't all that he needs. A complicated tale of repeating his father's self destructive behavior, losing Apollonia to another singer (Morris Day), and his coming to grips with his own connection to other people ensues.
