Conducted by Aziz Shokhakimov, the Orchestre Philharmonique de Strasbourg presents a rare work by Camille Saint-Saëns: the Oratorio de Noël. Composed in 1858 when the composer was just 23 years old, this cantata-like work is rarely performed on stage, making its performance quite unprecedented.

In 1987, to capitalize on his growing success in Europe, Prince toured extensively to promote the album of the same name and sales increased accordingly. However, the United States remained resistant to his latest album, and sales began to drop; it was at this point that Prince decided to film a live concert promoting the new material, for eventual distribution to theaters in America. Featuring the band that accompanied Prince on his 1987 Sign o' the Times Tour, including dancer Cat Glover, keyboardist Boni Boyer, bassist Levi Seacer, Jr., guitarist Miko Weaver, drummer Sheila E. and former member of The Revolution keyboardist Dr. Fink, the film sees the group perform live on stage (although "U Got the Look" is represented by its promotional music video).
