An image of a man stood in an American army uniform stood in a door way. Juan

Director: Callum O'Keefe

Year: 2026

Juan Lozano, a successful Elvis impersonator from Merthyr Tydfil, pushed his dedication to the limit by undergoing numerous surgeries to more closely resemble his idol. One of these surgeries has left him nearly blind, leading to the difficult decision to retire his Elvis show. As Juan prepares for his last performance as The King, he reflects on his remarkable 20-year career, celebrating the highs and facing the sacrifices made. Now, entering his twilight years, Juan is determined to step out of Elvis's shadow and rediscover his true self. After years of writing his own songs, he’s now ready to be recognised as an artist in his own right. Set against the backdrop of the Welsh valleys, this hopeful film explores themes of identity, the destructive pursuit of perfection, and the resilience found in living with a life-altering disability.
