    "Sign o' the Times" is a film written and directed by Prince. In 1987, to capitalise on his growing success in Europe, Prince toured extensively to promote the album "Sign o' the Times" and sales increased accordingly.

    However, America 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, drummer Sheila E. and former members of The Revolution, the film sees the group perform live on stage (although U Got The Look is represented by its promotional music video).
