Paramount Pictures have released the UK Trailer for Kathryn Ferguson‘s Nothing Compares. The documentary all about the iconoclastic Irish musician Sinead O’Connor.

The film s the rise and fall of the trailblazing singer, who rose to fame with Nothing Compares 2 U. A classic song written by the legendary Prince released by O’Connor in 1990. It propelled her into the world stage, and at the same her refusal to comprise made her a controversial figure.

The film focuses on her unhappy upbringing to her rise between 1987 to 1992. Not forgetting her refusal to compromise to conform which saw her been exiled from the industry.

Directed by Kathryn Ferguson (Taking the Waters, Space to Be). NOTHING COMPARES charts Sinéad OʼConnorʼs phenomenal rise to worldwide fame. And examines how she used her voice at the height of her stardom, before her iconoclastic personality led to her exile from the pop mainstream.
