He begins by recounting his turbulent childhood in Dublin, marked by the early loss of his mother and the complex relationship with his father, a post office worker with a beautiful tenor voice that remained largely unsung. The narrative weaves between Bono’s intimate reflections and stripped-down performances of U2 classics, each song serving as a chapter in his life story.

The film delves into Bono’s activism, showcasing his encounters with world leaders and his passionate fight against poverty and AIDS in Africa, revealing both the triumphs and the criticisms he faced. Jacknife Lee, a longtime collaborator, provides insightful commentary on Bono’s creative process, while unseen home video footage and personal photographs add layers of vulnerability. Kate Ellis and Gemma Doherty showcase their talents in segments involving live musical performances. As the film progresses, Bono confronts his own ego and imperfections, grappling with the tension between his rock star persona and his desire to make a genuine difference in the world. The climax sees him returning to Dublin, revisiting his childhood home and reflecting on the enduring power of music to heal and connect, leaving the audience with a sense of hope and a renewed appreciation for the man behind the iconic voice.
