O filme é baseado na vida de Melvin Van Peebles, e foca as barreiras sociais e problemas de produção que ele teve que enfrentar, assim como os sacrifícios pessoais que teve que fazer, como ter o seu filme rejeitado pelos estúdios de Hollywood e ter que fingir estar produzindo filmes eróticos. No final, Melvin torna-se bem sucedido, lançando seu tão almejado filme.
