Netflix is previewing the documentary Tomorrow was Beautiful about Colombian singer and actress Karol G (born Carolina Giraldo Navarro) set for release May 8.

Directed by Cristina Costantini and produced by R.J. Cutler’s This Machine (a Sony Pictures Television company), the documentary chronicles Karol G’s inspiring journey to global stardom, giving fans a behind-the-scenes glimpse behind her stadium tour. The film follows her rise from her modest roots in Medellín, Colombia, as she defies the odds—and the doubters—who told her she wouldn’t succeed because of her gender, her background, or the scale of her dreams.

Karol G says in the trailer: “The fact that I’m a woman was already a huge obstacle for my career. Everyone could see I was at the top of my career, but inside, I felt like I was losing who I really was. As much as I’d like to explain how difficult it was, I wouldn’t have enough time.”
