The Words

"These last two years have been a challenge for me, the journey from discovering my condition to learning to live with it and manage it, without allowing this situation to define me," said Celine Dion. "As I continue on the road to resume my career as a performer, I realized how much I missed the relationship with my fans. During this absence, I decided that I wanted to document this part of my life, to try to increase awareness of this little-known condition, to help those who have my same diagnosis."

"Celine Dion is a global superstar with an artistic path defined not only by her extraordinary work ethic and passion, but also by her dedication to her fans", said Jennifer Salke, head of Amazon MGM Studios. "This documentary is a direct and intimate portrait of a crucial moment in her personal life and her career, and raises the curtain on the journey she is making to overcome an unthinkable diagnosis. We are honored that she has entrusted us with her story, and we look forward to sharing it with the Prime Video audience around the world."
